"In 1933 the German architect Bruno Taut (18801938), who had fled from the Nazis the year before, arrived in Japan, where he stayed for three years.Taut wrote, "In Katsura denkt das Auge" "At Katsura the eyes think." He was struck by the simplicity of the building, by its apparent lack of ornamentation, by its just proportions, and by its spatial integration with the surrounding garden. These features seemed to him to accord perfectly with the aesthetic ideals of twentieth-century functionalism. Yet, when one considers the Katsura Palace in the context of the Japanese architectural tradition, it is difficult to say that Taut's assessment of it was adequate.In preparing this book, we have attempted to rid ourselves of this preconceived notion and examine Katsura as it is. Our aim has been to start from scratch and arrive at an objective appraisal, which would put the palace in proper perspective with regards to Japanese architecture as a whole. Takeshi Nishikawa spent nearly five years taking the photographs reproduced here.".
