Download or read book Birth of form written by Stephan Schulenburg (Graf von der.) and published by Weatherhill, Incorporated. This book was released on 2003-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the Museum of Applied Arts, Frankfurt (mak.frankfurt) holds one of the finest collections of Chinese ceramics in Europe, its early wares have remained mostly unpublished. This catalogue introduces a total 419 early Chinese ceramics, described in 374 catalogue entries covering a time span of more than 6000 years. Because of the large number of non-Germans among museum visitors (some 30%) and the international community of collectors, the catalogue is published in a bilingual edition (German and English) with brief entries and glossary in Chinese. Some 80 of the ceramics appear in color plates, while all 374 entries are included in an accompanying CD-ROM that provides detailed descriptions of all exhibits, including a brief Chinese description. The CD further includes details of designs and inscriptions whenever useful, and interactive information on the geographical setting, historical sequence of cultures, and production centers in ancient China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For centuries Chinese ceramics have been the objects most coveted in the West by collectors with an interest in the arts of Asia. The extraordinary innovations of Chinese potters court among the most outstanding accomplishments in the cultural heritage of the world since the Neolithic era. Systematic study of Chinese ceramics, begun in the eighteenth century with the French Jesuit Pere d'Entrecolles, has been greatly enlarged in the twentieth century, and since the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976, extensive excavations at kiln sites have yielded invaluable new insights into the chronological development of ceramic forms, glaze types and decorative styles. This remarkable book cites all the latest scientific and archaeological evidence, examining provenance, technique, archaeological and historical context, and ancient traditions of Chinese connoisseurship and patronage to provide an integrated and highly detailed approach to the subject." "In over 700 color photographs specially taken for this book, a wide range of imperial and regional, decorative and practical, export and domestic, ceremonial and funerary wares are fully represented."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
