DESCRIPTION:The samurai culture and code of conduct\,&nbsp\;<em>bushido</em
 >\, have long captivated the imaginations and aspirations of young and old
  in the Western world. More than just professional warriors\, Japanese sam
 urai of the highest rank were also visionaries who strove to master artist
 ic\, cultural\, and spiritual pursuits.\n\n<em>Lords of the Samurai</em>&n
 bsp\;takes an intimate look at the&nbsp\;<em>daimyo</em>\, or provincial l
 ords of the warrior class in feudal Japan. The Hosokawa clan\, powerful mi
 litary nobles with a 600-year-old lineage\, embodied this duality of fierc
 e warrior and refined gentleman.\n\nThe exhibition features more than 160 
 works from the Hosokawa family collection housed in the Eisei-Bunko Museum
  in Tokyo\, and from Kumamoto Castle and the Kumamoto Municipal Museum in 
 Kyushu. Objects on view include suits of armor\, armaments (including swor
 ds and guns)\, formal attire\, calligraphy\, paintings\, tea wares\, lacqu
 erware\, masks\, and musical instruments.\n\nThe Asian Art Museum is the o
 nly U.S. venue for this exhibition.\n\nVisit&nbsp\;<a href="http://www.asi
