Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Alexandre Jacovleff (illustrator). 1st Edition. A striking early twentieth-century study of traditional Chinese theatre, combining concise descriptive text with a rich visual programme. Written by Chu-Chia-Chien and translated from the French, the work reflects Western interest in Chinese performance culture during the period, presenting aspects of staging, costume and character through both commentary and illustration. The volume is particularly notable for the contribution of Alexandre Jacovleff, whose distinctive drawings and paintings capture the theatrical forms with clarity and elegance. Produced in folio format by The Bodley Head, the book places strong emphasis on its visual content, with a series of colour plates and monochrome illustrations that form a substantial part of its appeal. As such, it occupies a place both as a work on theatre and as an illustrated art book, representative of early twentieth-century European engagement with Asian subjects.
