Professor Rein's travels and researches, undertaken at the cost of the Prussian government, took place during the crucial period of rediscovery by Japan and the West of each other. What makes Rein's work so interesting and classic is his extraordinary organization and attention to detail: no other survey has covered so much ground with such depth of analysis. The facsimile reissue of Rein's work attempts to do justice to the quality of the original illustrations at a realistic price. These illustrations demonstrate the richness and variety of techniques in use in Japanese industry at the time.
