A Japanese travel itinerary including "the most important and interesting things to see in ten days," including shrines, gardens, and wrestling matches. Lum (1869-1954) was an illustrator, printer and silkscreen artist who was influenced by Japanese and Chinese art throughout her career. She first travelled to Japan on her honeymoon in 1903; while there she learned the basics of traditional Japanese ukiyo-e printing and became fascinated by Japanese prints. Her art was successful in Japan and she was the only female artist exhibiting at the Tokyo International Exhibition in 1912. She also exhibited in California at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 1920 Throughout her life, Lum published illustrated books and contributed artwork to periodicals like Good Housekeeping. Canadian Pacific commissioned her to write this travel book, now a rare item, about 1930.
