Miyabi Kyodo: Gorgeous book of paintings 2
鏡堂みやび豪華画集 第弐集
Publisher: Tokyo: Sanwa, 2013
First edition, 500 copies

A black slipcase with a hardbound book, the second one from Sanwa collecting the work of the artist Miyabi Kyodo.

Master K writes in ”The Beauty of Kinbaku”:
”Miyabi’s SM art is like no other’s in Japan (…) [He] continues the traditions of evocative seme-e begun in the early Edo era that inspired the SM pioneer Itoh Seiyu, encompassed the mid-twentieth century genius of Kita Reiko, and still resonate with us today in the intriguing and artistic world of modern shibari/kinbaku.” (p. 84)
