This is a collection of large-size works, including some works that are included for the first time, focusing on landscapes with buildings drawn by the illustrator Hiroshi Nagai, mainly in recent years.
Popular illustrator Hiroshi Nagai has been active since the 1970s in record jackets and advertisements.
His unique style, a mixture of surrealism and pop art, gradually took shape in Nagai’s mind during a 40-day trip to the U.S. in the early 1970s, combined with scenes of palm trees lining the streets in front of train stations in his hometown.
Hiroshi Nagai is himself a great lover of architecture and buildings.
Through this filter, the scenes he admires become one-of-a-kind works of art that add a sophisticated charm to the entire book.

I guess this is why Japan is known for quality and excellent process execution. My purchase arrived even earlier as it was planned! Love it.
