Specification Mizuki Shigeru 97th Anniversary Art Book

A collection of vivid monster paintings by Shigeru Mizuki.
An authentic art book that recreates its overwhelming beauty in every detail!

"Mizuki's monster paintings, which exude a sense of everyday life, have a mysterious power that evokes the origins of folk beliefs that quietly flow underground in the ancient layers of Japan." Yoshiharu Tsuge

Manga artist Mizuki Shigeru, creator of "GeGeGe no Kitaro" and a yokai researcher. With the cooperation of Mizuki Productions, this collection of works was carefully selected from the more than 1,000 yokai drawings he has produced over his 60-plus years as an artist. Skies depicted with minute pointillism, landscapes meticulously drawn down to the last blade of grass, and yokai with charming expressions. This is an art book that allows you to fully enjoy the charm of "artist Mizuki Shigeru."

[Included Yokai Art]
This collection includes 74 paintings of monsters (62 colour and 12 black and white), including Akajita, Amamehagi, Iwanabozu, Omotoshin, Gaki, Kasha, Garappa, Kawataro, Kimiko, Tenka, Fuki-keshi Hag, Hosote, Ienari, and Yamaoni.
