The book also delves into the history of Buddhist art, tracing its evolution across different regions and time periods. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the role of art in Buddhist culture and spirituality, making it a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Buddhism and art alike.1915. With special reference to Buddhism in Japan. This work contains four lectures given at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. The object of the lectures was to elucidate the ideals which inspired Buddhist artists, and to give some account of the legends which they illustrated. The author has dwelt very largely on Japanese Buddhism, not only because it is a subject with which he is intimate, but also because he believes Japanese Buddhism is representative, more than Indian and Chinese, of a continuous development both in doctrine and in art.
