Download or read book A Catalogue of Chinese Porcelains written by John Getz and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of Chinese Porcelains: Collected by Mr. And Mrs. Charles P. Taft, Cincinnati, Ohio The private Collection of Chinese Porcelains formed by Mr. and Mrs. Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati, described and illustrated in the following pages, contains uniformly important specimens as well as interesting and noteworthy groups that exemplify the high technical skill attained during the early periods of the ceramic art in China, and which are held in great esteem by all connoisseurs to-day. Covering so many centuries in the history of this art, these objects in porcelain, by their surpassing qualities and preeminence, fairly indicate that the transcendent success of their kind, whether owned in private or museum aggregations, contributed largely to the glory of those past epochs to which they are ascribed by native and other authorities. The creations of Chinese ceramists justly enjoy universal celebrity and favor, their singular beauty and exquisite richness making them harmonious adjuncts to tasteful and esthetic surroundings the world over. Decorative applicability, together with a subtle charm of refinement, is always gratifying; and we know that such objects won the enthusiastic admiration of kings and emperors, in Europe as in the far East.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most revered and beloved artworks in China are ceramics—sculptures and vessels that have been utilized to embellish tombs, homes, and studies, to drink tea and wine, and to convey social and cultural meanings such as good wishes and religious beliefs. Since the eighth century, Chinese ceramics, particularly porcelain, have played an influential role around the world as trade introduced their beauty and surpassing craft to countless artists in Europe, America, and elsewhere. Spanning five millennia, the Metropolitan Museum’s collection of Chinese ceramics represents a great diversity of materials, shapes, and subjects. The remarkable selections presented in this volume, which include both familiar examples and unusual ones, will acquaint readers with the prodigious accomplishments of Chinese ceramicists from Neolithic times to the modern era. As with previous books in the How to Read series, How to Read Chinese Ceramics elucidates the works to encourage deeper understanding and appreciation of the meaning of individual pieces and the culture in which they were created. From exquisite jars, bowls, bottles, and dishes to the elegantly sculpted Chan Patriarch Bodhidharma and the gorgeous Vase with Flowers of the Four Seasons, How to Read Chinese Ceramics is a captivating introduction to one of the greatest artistic traditions in Asian culture.

Book Catalogue of the Morgan Collection  of Chinese Porcelains

Download or read book Catalogue of the Morgan Collection of Chinese Porcelains written by Stephen W. Bushell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Morgan Collection, of Chinese Porcelains This work has been made available to visitors by the aid of Dr. Stephen W. Bushell, C.M.G., the eminent Oriental scholar and sinologue, who has revised (1906) the original catalogue of Mr. Morgan's collection, privately printed in a limited edition. Dr. Bushell has also written an introductory article on the general subject of Chinese porcelain and its history, similar to his Chinese Art, in the South Kensington Museum series, and it will be found to contain a short and authoritative account of the industry from the earliest times to the present day. The purpose of the present catalogue is to afford to those interested in the subject of Chinese porcelain an opportunity to study the objects exhibited in the Morgan Collection in the light of the latest knowledge that is to be had on the subject. The collection is the most comprehensive that is known, and it has been described as succinctly and lucidly as appeared possible, and without any technicalities that could be avoided.
