Soft Cover. Condición: New. First Edition. Chinese scholar's stones, variously called "viewing stones," "spirit stones," "respect stones, (gongshi)," and even "weird rocks, (guaishi)," have been appreciated and written about in China for more than a millennium. And although acquiring them in the West has become increasingly popular in recent times, most people perceive this hobby as limited to wealthy collectors. This need not be so: appreciating and collecting scholar's stones is popular among people of all means and occupations in China, and should be in the West as well. All the would-be collector needs is a good eye and the basic information about stone types and characteristics that this book provides. Through descriptions and color photographs, Modern Chinese Scholars' Rocks introduces over 40 stone types, including their mineral compositions, typical colors, hardness on the Mohr scale, and where they are found or quarried. The qualities for which they are valued are explained as are other features for the stone connoisseur to look for. Separate chapters explain how to display stones to their best advantage and how to make display stands. This modest, straightforward, and informative volume will engage readers in the exciting world of appreciating and collecting these brilliant natural art objects. 128 pp 150 full col. illustrations, bibliography, notes.

Hard Cover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. First Edition. Interest in scholars stones (gongshi), collected by Chinese literati and artists since the Tang dynasty, has expanded greatly in the West over the last five years, with over a dozen major exhibits mounted in museums around the world. Yet there exists only a handful of titles in English on the subject, and important texts such as the Suyuan Stone Catalogue, one of China's earliest and most comprehensive illustrated books on the subject, have never been translated. With its illuminating commentary and well-rendered wood-block illustrations, the Suyuan catalogue is an invaluable reference book for the study of ancient Chinese scholars' rocks. From the 101 entries of various stones and stone types listed in the catalogue, the author has chosen to focus on twenty of the historically most important, then provided translated text, original illustrations, and commentary for each. These stones are used as a springboard for an extended discussion of the connoisseurship and collection of scholars' stones, thoroughly illustrated with photos, paintings, and related materials, and especially, photographs of the finest stones from modern collections. Kemin Hu was stirred to an appreciation of scholars' stones by her father, a noted connoisseur of Chinese antiquities. She became an authority on scholars' stones through her long career as a dealer and collector of them, as well as through her friendships with such great collectors as Richard Rosenblum and C.C. Wang. Kemin Hu is also the author of Spirit of Gongshi: Chinese Scholars' Rocks. 176 pp., 160 color photos, 30 woodblock prints Size: 28 x 22 cm.…
