deleted. From the given options, choose the sentence that completes the paragraph
in the most appropriate way.
The plebeian origin of the prints explains why the cultivated Japanese have not, as a rule,
looked upon them with much enthusiasm. Only now, when the greatest print treasures
have gone out of Japan, are a few Japanese collectors beginning to buy back at high prices
works which they allowed to leave the country for a song. The admiration of Europe and
America has awakened them to a realization of the distinction of the prints, in spite of the
undistinguished nature of their subjects;
(A) the interest of Western collectors in Japanese prints is of comparatively recent origin.
(B) and the day will come when the Japanese themselves will be the most formidable
bidders at the sales of great Western collections.
(C) and the Japanese print is swiftly becoming a general treasure.
(D) Japan has been ransacked so thoroughly that the would-be purchaser can perhaps
more wisely go to London or Paris or New York than to Tokyo or Kyoto in his search
for prizes.
