This three-volume work containing more than 12,000 entries and over 5,000 seals represents the by far most comprehensive publication to appear on this topic to date. It is based on the 40 years of intensive research carried out into objects and relevant literature by Robert E. Haynes, an expert of international repute. For the first time, information taken from more than one hundred years of Japanese literature is compared with that of western publications and supplemented with current knowledge. On the basis of the date presented, the reader is able to allocate signatures to objects, to obtain background information and, if necessary, to further his own study by using the source references for the individual entries. The clear layout and the unconventional format enable expert and layman alike to make effective use of the work, turning it into an indispensable tool for every collector, dealer or student and art. |

The intensive collaboration with Robert E. Haynes and Dr. Michela Marangon, a specialist in multilingual data collection, has enabled Nihon Art Publishers to succeed in making this unique life´s work accessible to the public. A preface by Neil K. Davey endorses the high scientific claim of the work. Preparations are currently underway for the later distribution of the publication in digital format on data carriers, and the release of the publication on the Internet in the form of global knowledge database will enable continual further expansion. Thus, the complete works of Robert E. Haynes are not to be seen as the end of a research activity, but as the beginning of an ongoing publication allowing anyone who is interested to make their own contribution for decades to come. Each purchaser of the publication will also be sent the digital data carrier free of charge on request.
