Bazza Posted July 22, 2017 Report Posted July 22, 2017 Peter, This was very interesting to me. Decades ago at work a colleague had Okakura Kakuzo's Book of Tea. I was captivated by it and put off giving it back, so my colleague bought me a copy to get his back!!! It still sits proudly on my bookshelves. Imagine my surprise when in the 7th image down there was a photo of the man himself. To also discover he became a curator at the MFA was especially interesting. Magic stuff. Bestests, BaZZa. 2 Quote
