An adult coloring book based on The Tale of Genji, with scenes from the story set in the court world of the Heian period. Coloring the pages lets you build your own version of a Genji picture scroll.
The opening pages show finished color samples. They also explain how to color fine details such as twelve-layered court robes, flower patterns and traditional Japanese patterns, with tips for a more polished result.
Other pages introduce traditional Japanese colors, a summary of the story and its main characters.
Translated from the Japanese original.
