Das Buch vom Tee von
Okakura Kakuzo´s book of tea has become one of the most important books on tea ever written. It is a true classic on the Japanese tea ceremony and its philosophy. When Insel Verlag invited me to contribute illustrations to the elaborate reprint, I was incited to create images that will not only illustrate, but also illuminate its complex content.
