Utagawa Kunisada Woodblock Triptych (€600-€800), which will feature in Adam’s upcoming Decorative Asian Art and Asian Spring sales

Leafing through Adam’s three scholarly and beautifully illustrated catalogues, Decorative Asian Art and Asian Spring #1 and #2, is like taking a journey from India to Japan across several centuries.
