hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. includes dust-jacket. DETAILS: very good dust-jacket, price 5 gns net, attractive copy, near fine bright blue cloth, large section of black and white photographs. GOMPERTZ, G. ST G. M. Korean pottery and porcelain of the Yi period. London: Faber and Faber, 1968, 128 plates, iii-xx, 107pp., . Series: The Faber monographs on pottery and porcelain The history of ceramics in Korea may be conveniently divided into two periods. The first covers the early wares of the Silla period, leading to the celadons and other monochrome wares of the Koryo ?dynasty (918-1392). The second period, which takes us from 1392 to the early twentieth century, was an unhappy one for the Korean people. The invasions of the Mongols in the thirteenth century led to a decline in prosperity and towards the end of the sixteenth century Korea was ravaged by the Japanese under the Sho?un Hideyoshi and entered into a state of extreme poverty. From 1600 to recent times contact with the outside world was cut off, although the country was exploited from time to time by the Japanese. - CONTENTS: Foreword -- List of plates -- Preface -- Chronological summary -- Introduction: The aesthetic approach -- 1.
