Description
    In the 1860s, European artists’ interest in Japanese art began to intensify. Rutherford Alcock—the first British consul in Japan—exhibited his collection of Japanese colored woodcuts at the London World’s Fair in 1864; his presentation sparked artists’ interest in this artistic genre, which had been largely unknown up to then. The 1870s saw artists in Paris advance to the forefront of modernism. Later on, in 1900, the 6th exhibition at the Vienna Secession showed a collection of Japanese art; equally sensational was the 16th exhibition entitled Entwicklung des Impressionismus in Malerei und Plastik [The Development of Impressionism in Painting and Sculpture], held in 1903. It is impossible to overlook just how great the influence of Japan on turn-of-the-century Vienna was. Ornaments were copied and used in furniture upholstery, the simplicity and clarity of Japanese design principles were transferred to the design of interior spaces and furniture, and ceramics and glass items took their cues from East Asian shapes and glazes. (Weininger, Johannes)
