I paged through this illustrated retrospective of Hayao Miyazaki’s work at the bookstore a few months ago and it was gorgeous. “The book is artistic biography, aesthetic treatise, creative process explication, and celebration of the filmmaker’s work.”

We've got a copy! The essays were well worth a read, much like those in the Wes Anderson Collection series.
I recently struggled to resist this 500+ page book focusing just on backgrounds from ghibli films, I love the background art do much.
