For allowing this exhibition to represent a more comprehensive range of Rinpa
art, I should like to thank the many lenders, listed by name below, who generously
made precious works available for the two rotations. This project could not have

succeeded without the support of The Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Foundation,
which funded the exhibition, and the Richard and Geneva Hofheimer Memorial
Fund, which underwrote the publication.

Finally, I want to thank Peter Yeoh, who was a stalwart support throughout
the entire project and as we made the transition from London to New York.
