Seiichi Hayashi, Love Letter, 1983.
$115.00
Unlike Seiichi's book that immedialy preceded this one, 'Women's Heart,' that depicted nude women lounging around in a modern setting smoking cigirates, 'Love Letter' takes a different direction.
This book is seperated into two sections;
Dance Princess: Profiles and portraits of Japanese women drawn in Seiichi's iconic style, dressed traditionally, holding fans or smelling flowers.
Domu: Taking up the majority of the book's pages, the style is noticeably more cute, and the scenes are very pastoral, children playing in the leaves, or reading books.
