Jades from China.
FORSYTH, ANGUS HAMISH, AND BRIAN MCELNEY. Stock ID: 127457 Map, colour photographic illustrations, chronoligical table, bilingual, bibliography, dustjacket, quarto. Chinese jade has an immense appeal for many people and is a splendid theme for a public exhibition; but as all students will recognise, as a subject of study it has its difficultires. Because of its great antiquity and the reverence in which it was held from the earliest days, not to mention the unworldly character and beauty of the material itself, jades came to enjoy a uniquely favoured place in the hierarchy of Chinese arts. This is a special exhibition held by The Museum of East Asian Art. (When referring to this item please quote stockid 127457) ... more |
