    The Murakami: Ego book showcases the artwork of the talented artist in high quality printing. The cover is soft and padded, giving it a luxurious feel. It makes for a great gift for fans of Murakami. However, some customers have experienced slight damage on the front cover upon delivery. The book contains full-page and extended page high-resolution images of artwork, showcasing a range of work from sculpture to early painting and prints.
