Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. Dust Jacket Included. English text; Paperback; 21.8 x 28.2 cm; 0.720 Kg; 158 pages with 165 colour plates and 7 black-and-white illustrations.; Used with minor signs of wear; Catalogue from the exhibition at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, January 31-November 28, 1993.; The Gemlike beauty of mult…icoloured enamel decoration on white porcelain - sometimes akin to painting, sometimes echoing the rich texture of silk brocades, lacquers, and cloisonne - is the focus of this volume of seventy-nine Chinese porcelains of the Ming and Qing dynasties drawn from renowned collections of members of the Min Chiu Society, Hong Kong. Although polychrome porcelain is most often examined from the perspectives of authenticity, dating, and stylistic development, this study addresses the crucial issue of meaning. Through an exploration of the emblematic significance of individual colours and of colour combinations (including the famed doucai color scheme from which this book takes its name) and the auspicious meaning of imagery, the authors have placed these impressive ceramics within a framework of Chinese cultural values. The catalogue is lavishly illustrated in colour, with detailed descriptions of the objects focusing on decoration and the use of under - and overglazed enamels. Reign marks are illustrated for each piece. This book will be of great interest to collectors and students of porcelain, scholars, and all those who love ceramics and Chinese art.

Volume 1 as a few pages slightly bent on the top right side. Remaining interior in good condition.; "Although bamboo is a common plant found in many parts of the world, few peoples have taken such a keen interest in its use as a medium for artistic expression as the Chinese. Their fondness for bamboo has frequently been expressed in poetry, painting, calligraphy, carving and many other art forms. Since the Sung dynasty (960-1279), the Chinese have written of bamboo as the symbol of the "true gentleman", or scholar possessing the virtues of endurance, righteousness, humility and integrity. Chinese scholars always enjoy the presence of bamboo, whether it be the growing plant, or bamboo in painting, or an object made from part of the plant. It is not difficult, therefore, to preceive why bamboo carving has its own special significance in the Chinese art scene and why this art form was so closely associated with Chinese scholars. In fact, most of the carvings in the exhibition as illustrated in this volume were once the companions of Chinese scholars in their elegant studios. This first exhibition of bamboo carving, has been made possible only through the untiring efforts and support of our Museum Adviser, Dr. Ip Yee. We are deeply in debt to him not only for the generous loan of his fine collection of bamboo carvings, but also for the expert advice to the preparation of the exhibition and compilation of this handbook." excerpt from the acknowledgments, Part I, by Laurence C.S. Tam, September, 1978.; "In this volume the attempt is made to provide some basic facts, in English and in Chinese, on Chinese bamboo carvers and their carvings gleaned from Chinese literary records, and to do so in a manner that will facilitate reference. A list of 300 bamboo carvers has been compiled, and the sources for each are indicated after each biography for the use of those who may wish to research further. In order to facilitate positive identification of artists among the spectrum of their names, and pseudonyms, and other assumed names, a special index has been compiled with direct reference to the biographical notes of each artist. Part I of this book attempted a brief summary of the history of bamboo carving, and there, it was noted that the subject has so far been little studied. Here, in order to facilitate further study and research, a compilation of available material has been made, and the resulting three lists show the known items of bamboo carving of different periods, with the source of each recorded item indicated. These lists have been made up to enable easy access to the basic information on the earliest known items of bamboo carving, together with the recorded examples by known carvers and also those so far anonymous. In the exhibition 'Chinese Bamboo Carving', there were two hundred and eleven items on display. These were all fine works selected from collections from many parts of the world. All are illustrated in Part I of this book. Many other examples of fine bamboo carving exist in local Hong Kong collections, and these are now collected in this present volume in order to provide further visual examples of forms, techniques, pictorial motifs, composition, and even dating criteria." excerpt from Preface, Part II, by Laurence C.S. Tam, Curator, Hong Kong Museum of Art.

The exhibition features sixty-five pieces of blue and white, fifty-four pieces of polychrome and forty-four pieces of monochrome, totalling one hundred and sixty-tree objects dating from the 13th to the 18th century, they are the very best of Mr. Ko Shih Chao's acquisitions made in the last twenty years. A large majority of the pieces are products of the imperial kilns of Jingdezhen. They present a spectrum of techniques and styles, and tell the story to the constant striving by potters of Jingdezhen to refine the porcelain body, to master the intricacies of firing, and to invent new glazes from metals, a forth element provided by nature. It is an extraordinary chapter - and the climatic chapter - from the seven-thousand year saga of ceramics. Through the generosity of Mr. Ko Shih Chao the Tianminlou Collection has been put in public view. In addition to lending his collection for exhibition, Mr. Ko has also sponsored the publication of the catalogue that accompanies the exhibition. To the catalogue itself he has contributed many entries as well as one of the essays. The value of the catalogue has been enhanced by the essays contributed by Mr. John Ayers, Mr Julian Thompson and Mr Laurence Tam. It was Mr. Ko Shih Chao idea to include in the catalogue panoramic illustrations of a number of pieces so that the swept and subtlety of their designs can be fully appreciated. The catalogue is itself a visual delight thanks to the superb technique of the photographers: Mr Ogawa Tadahiro who did the panoramic photographs, Mr Wakisaka Susumu who took most of the colour transparencies for Volume I of the catalogue. " excerpt from the Preface by Christina Chu, Curator of the Hong Kong Museum of Art, July 1987.
