内容提要：

本书展示了日本收藏的高品质法国印象派作品，讲述了日欧艺术间相互影响的故事。19世纪末，日本开始收藏印象派绘画，实业家松方幸次郎是20世纪上半叶日本最重要的收藏家，也是莫奈的密友。如今这些日本博物馆的精选馆藏回到欧洲展出，包括法国印象派和后印象派艺术家如莫奈、马奈、塞尚、高更、博纳尔、毕沙罗、雷诺阿、西涅克、西斯莱和梵高的杰作。它们与1920年前的日本绘画相映成趣，为现代西方风格的日本艺术奠定了基础。

At the end of the nineteenth century Japanese collectors began to put together Impressionist collections of outstanding quality. This development began with the industrialist Kojiro Matsukata, who was a close friend of Claude Monet. Today there are several distinguished collections that are shown in renowned public and private museums. A selection of exquisite works from these Japanese museums now returns exclusively to Europe. At the heart of the exhibition and the book are masterpieces by French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists, among them Monet, Manet, Cezanne, Gauguin, Bonnard, Pissarro, Renoir, Signac, Sisley and van Gogh. Their paintings are complemented by a selection of works by Japanese artists from the period before 1920 that laid the foundation for modern, Western-inspired Japanese art. Together, they tell the story of the interaction and two-way artistic influence between Europe and Japan from a new perspective.
