An Artist's Letters from Japan | Thalia

An Artist's Letters from Japan is a book by John La Farge. La Farge was an artist and writer who penned extensively on Japanese art, culture and customs. Excerpt: 'The land is cultivated like a garden, the lotus leaves fill the ditches, and one or two pink flowers are just out. From time to time we saw stretches of blue sea. And once, for an instant, as I looked up into the hazy, clouded sky, far beyond the hills, that were lost in the mist into which the rice-field stretched, I saw a pale, clear blue opening in which was an outline more distinct, something very pure, the edge of a mountain, looking as if it belonged to another world than the dewy moist one in which we are-the cone of Fusi-yama.'
