Artists are listed alphabetically by western names, but entries do provide their corresonding characters and alternate names. The entries also include a list of museum collections that house works by the artist, in addition to short bibliographies. Finally, there is a brief glossary, an index of alternate names and a character index. [Review, Oberlin Art Library Staff, BQP 8/23/01, MJR 2/15/02] Includes index Artists 709 WEA 1976 A111 Or.
