Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Large quarto in dark grey silk cloth with gilt stamped spine. Bright illustrated jacket. Corrigenda slip loosely laid in. A sumptuous catalogue of one of the most important exhibitions of Chinese art and artifacts ever held. "Fifty years of scientific archaeology in the People's Republic of China (PRC) have redefined early Chinese culture. This handsome volume surveys some of the most spectacular recent finds and their role in reshaping the history of civilization in ancient China. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., teamed up with Kansas City's Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art to organize a second extravaganza of unburied treasures, emphasizing discoveries made since their last show in 1974. The more than 175 objects from four historical periods and in numerous media represent important early sites and a diversity of cultures located outside the central Yellow River area--most notably in the south and southwest regions, like the state of Chu. The range is vast, from roughly painted pots about 6,000 years old to lovely clay and marble figures modeling the courtly fashions of 1,000 years ago. The excellent photographs and short texts on individual objects and their excavation sites describe their artistic and historical importance and prompt readers to savor individual artifacts over broad sweeps of history. Linger over a unique pottery basin painted with diagonal lozenges; an over-life-size bronze figure and related heads with strikingly geometrical features; various fantastic creatures in bronze and jade; lacquer bowls and silk garment fragments that have unbelievably survived the centuries; and polychromed Buddhist deities that reveal details like blue mustaches and eyebrows." [Heavy, no international shipping on this item] Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.…

This book and the exhibition that it accompanies cover the period from 5000 BCE to the 10th century C.E. presenting more than 170 masterpieces in jade, stone, ivory, bone, pottery, bronze, lacquer, bamboo, gold, and silver. Together these astonishing objects demonstrate that highly advanced artistic cultures originated in and flowered throughout a vast area. Earlier generations of scholars believed that a much smaller area, the Yellow River Valley, was the principal source and focus of Chinese civilization. The objects represent more than twenty cultures and are remarkably well preserved. From the Neolithic period are finely carved jade and stone works, and painted pottery. The Early Bronze Age cultures in both north and south are represented by finds from Xiautun. Sanxingdui, and Xin'gan. From Chu and other states that flourished at the point of conversion of the Bronze and Iron Ages are silk, lacquer, jade, and ritual bronzes. The imperial Age produced such astonishing works as the Qin terra-cotta army from Lintong, jade burial suits, Buddhist sculpture from Qiangzhou, and gold and silver from the Famen monastery. Each splendid object is catalogued by leading experts in Chinese art and archaeology, and all are reproduced in full colour.…
