Description
The Art of the Samurai illustrates more than forty examples of Japanese art drawn from the oriental collections of the National Museums and Galleries on Merseyside. Not all of these artefacts are associated with warfare and many depict the more peaceful pursuits of the Samurai class after politcal change deflected their attention from their warlike past to the arts of peace. Closely linked with the Samurai were the sword smiths and craftsmen who supplied and embellished their weapons and accoutrements and who, during the nineteenth century, turned their skills to the production of art which was highly desirable and collectable in the West.
