During the late-19th century, ukiyo-e, porcelain, fans, and other forms of Japanese fine art became strong sources of inspiration for many Western artists. The European craze for Japanese art became so great that the word "Japonism" was coined in 1872 to describe the phenomenon, and has since been used to explain the influence of Japanese art on Western art culture.
Now, two centuries later, the usage of the word "Neo Japonism" has been on the rise. Neo Japonism refers to a revival of Western interest in Japanese art, which has prompted many artists to turn to Japanese art culture for inspiration when producing modern works and designs.
