Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japanese Porcelain This is one of the most animated pieces produced from the famous Hirado factory. The boys are seen playing Blind Man's Buff round a stone lantern. The figures are brilliantly glazed and coloured, but the stone pillar holding the lantern is left in plain biscuit. The characters on the pillar tell of some legend in connection with the game. The piece is slightly warped in the baking, a not uncommon result of the early unscientific methods of the Japanese potters.

Your reviewer remarks upon the translations of the numerous marks and signatures which I have given, without, however, pointing out any errors. The perfect transliteration of the characters used by Japanese potters is a matter on which no foreigner living may dogmati'ze, indeed, various meanings may properly be assigned to many of these characters; but I feel no doubt whatever that the renderings of the marks in my volume are substantially correct, for they have been passed under review by four accomplished native scholars.

This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Information Relating to the Pottery Industry in Japan The distinction made in the Questionnaire between China and General earthenware is difficult to observe in dealing with Japanese ceramics. The Japanese distinguish between Earthenware, which corresponds to the English classification, and porcelain. Intermediate between these two is the modern manufacture (confined to one or two firms) of what is called in Japan Hard Earthenware, a generic term corresponding to faience or semi-porcelain but commercially applied t0'an Ironstone China. Apart from this, there is very little export ware that would come under the heading General Earthenware in Japan, and the following account may be taken to refer to China Porcelain) exclusively unless otherwise specifically stated.

Download or read book Keramic Art of Japan Classic Reprint written by George Ashdown Audsley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Keramic Art of Japan In writing the chapters devoted to the consideration of the Japanese Keramic manufactures, great difficulties have been experienced. Every available stream of information had to be carefully traced to its source; collections had to be reached and examined, both at home and abroad; Japanese authorities had to be catecheti cally examined, and the salient points of their ofttimes conflicting statements picked out and noted; and lastly, an extensive collection, with all the links as complete as possible, bad to be formed by ourselves for reference and study. In the pages of the Work we have acknowledged the sources from which special information has been derived. It is rather remarkable that modern writers on Japan, including those who have visited and resided there, have taught us absolutely nothing relative to the Keramic industry of the country; indeed, in comparison with the labours of Kaempfer and Siebold, modern exertions in a similar direction are painfully insignificant. It is a question if, had those indefatigable men. Not existed, we should at the present time have known half what we do about the natural history of the Japanese islands, and the manners, customs, and industries of the islanders.

Download or read book Chinese and Japanese Porcelains and Potteries and Other Far Eastern Objects of Art written by Anderson Galleries and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese and Japanese Porcelains and Potteries and Other Far Eastern Objects of Art: The Collection of Miss. Eliza Ruhamah Scidmore, Washington, D. C Miss Scidmore can tell you the story of how she found her precious Imperial - yellow Kang Hsi bowl in a remote cor ner of Peking and held it carefully in her arms during a long ride home in a sedan chair. She can tell you how, in 1902, she tracked down the Empress Dowager's throne - seat, looted from the Summer Palace during the Boxer Rebellion, to its last stopping-place far up Hatamen Street. But though every piece has its story, her collection is not merely a collection of associations. The objects are chosen with excellent taste and among them are notable pieces. Rarely has such a collectionof Japanese pottery utensils for the aim no yu, or ceremonial tea, been offered to the American public. These bits of sober - toned pottery are food for connoisseurs. Their soft grays and olive-greens and browns and creamy tans, their flecks and clouds and splashes of unexpected color, their ele gance of form and their unctuous softness to the touch, the studied fortuitousness of their art, make them objects appeal ing to the most cultivated taste.
