When the Impressionists Discovered Japan

From 1853, Japan opens up to the West. Numerous works of art and woodcuts find their way to Europe. The Impressionists and later the European artistic avant-garde succumb to this one passion: Japonism. 150 years after the beginning of the Meiji period in 1868, the film traces the connections between Japan and the Western world.
