Dreaming Girls: Art Collection of Macoto Takahashi

I brought this lovely collection of Takahashi Macoto's work for my sister as a birthday present. The pictures are very nice and I think do show quite a large variety of his art, certainly enough for you to be able to recognise where he got inspiration for some of the pictures. For example the English bride is very obviously Diana, Princess of Wales on her wedding day, with her hair colour changed from blonde to brown.We were able to struggle through the Japanese section at the back of the book which gives further details about the artist and his work.If you don't read Japanese and want this book for more than looking at pictures, then I do not suggest buying it.

I love it, got it as a gift for my sister and it is exactly as described, great quality.Only 4 stars because during shipping the corners of the book are slightly damaged, it should have been sent in a box to protect it better. Otherwise everything is great.

Libro lleno de preciosas ilustraciones de Macoto Takahashi, en tapa blanda. Me llegó muy bien, estoy encantada con el libro.

Such a pleasure to own this beautiful collection of gorgeous art! The book is large and has plenty pages full of pretty girls, fashion, fowers, architecture, animals....It would be nice to know what the japanese text says but it is not a big deal that I don't. The amount I paid for this was pretty good too but to be honest, no matter the price, its absolutely worth having this.

小学生の頃から、約半世紀も高橋先生のイラストの大ファンです。可愛いし、夢があります。

An excellent, high-quality book full of wonderful illustrations. Bought one for myself, and having seen the quality, bought another as a gift to a friend who loves the artist and art of beautiful girls in general.
