Sir Mark Masterman Sykes, Bart., (1771-1823), was the eldest son of Sir Christopher Sykes, second baronet, of Sledmere, Yorkshire. He was born on the 20th of August 1771, and in his seventeenth year was sent to Brasenose College, Oxford. In 1795 he served the office of High Sheriff of Yorkshire, and on the death of his father in 1801 he succeeded to the title and estates. He was elected Member of Parliament for the city of York in 1807; was again returned in 1812 and 1813, and retired on account of ill health in 1820. Sir M. Masterman Sykes was twice married. His first wife was Henrietta, daughter and heiress of Henry Masterman of Settrington, Yorkshire, and on his union with her in 1795 he assumed the additional name of Masterman. She died in 1813, and in the following year he married Mary Elizabeth, daughter of William Tatton Egerton, and sister of Wilbraham Tatton Egerton, of Tatton Park, who survived him. Sir Mark died at Weymouth, on his way to London, on the 16th of February 1823. He had no children, and was succeeded by his brother, Sir Tatton Sykes.

This is a fine softcover copy with no wear at all. Completely clean inside and out. Text in English and Japanese. This catalog was prepared to accompany the exhibition at the Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum in Tokyo from June 27 to September 6, 2015. The exhibition explored the relationship between Kyosai (1831- 1889) and Josiah Condor (1852- 1920). Josiah Condor was a British architect who was hired by the Meiji Japanese government as a professor of architecture for the Imperial College of Engineering and became architect of Japan's Public Works. He was a controversial figure in Japan because his teaching involved instructing young Japanese architects about the architecture in England and Europe. He was a prolific lecturer and author. One of his most important books in the west was "Landscape Gardening in Japan" (1893). Kyosai was also a controversial figure in Japan and ran afoul of the authorities many times. Kyosai is considered by many to be the greatest successor of Hokusai (of whom, however, he was not a pupil), as well as the first political caricaturist of Japan. Illustrated mostly in color.
