Description: While travelling through Japan in October and November of 1934, painter Leonard Tsuguharu Foujita made a charming booklet of colour drawings for his friend and travelling companion Eduardo de Arteaga. Foujita, Eduardo, and Foujita's wife Madeleine Lequeux journeyed together to Kobe, Kyoto, and the island of Itsukushima, popularly known as Miyajima. This book reproduces the delightful and previously unpublished sketches Foujita made for that trip, and recounts the story of the journey.
