This anthology presents the aesthetic side of the martial arts as they are found in numerous examples of material culture and items of fine art.

You may also discover items in other categories that are directly related, such as paintings and training equipment. Other fascinating items can be hidden in plain sight. It seems martial themes can be found in any museum category, including collections of statuary, ceramics, prints, paintings, jewelry, and calligraphy. For example, there are paintings of famous generals and battles, fearsome statues of temple guardian warriors, and philosophical insights in brush writings. While contemplating a particular collection from the interest of martial traditions, one museum curator said she had never previously thought of the collection from this perspective: It's enlightening. Objects that exhibit martial themes are made by artists and craftspeople. Only some of these items go into museums. Others are found in personal collections, stores, research institutes, art galleries, universities, practice halls, and elsewhere.
