Excerpt: ...being ornamentally conventionalized. Fig. 6, Plate x1v, represents a paper pattern showing a design for embroidering a shirt. In the centre is a circle, around which are grouped four tortoises (a), strongly conventionalized. Around it, on both sides, two bands forming four circles and two ellipses are symmetrically arranged. In every circle there is a roe Cervus capreolus L.), b; two snakes (muiki), d; and a bird (V), called tewerko, the species of which I have not yet been able to determine. Each ellipse contains a frog (Jiana temporaries L.), e; two spiders (atkomama), f; and two gadflies (shigaxtd), g. Outside of these f1gures a number of animals are represented standing along the edges of the pattern. There are four mosquitoes, h; four chimney-swallows (Hirundo rustica L.), i; four snakes, d; four stags (Ccrvus claphus L.), j; and four fawns (Cervus capreolus L.), k. In the paper pattern shown in Fig. 20 the same picture is represented eight times. In it the following animals are represented: a jumping tiger (a) with open jaws, the fore-legs with paws outstretched, with only one hind-leg, and tail upturned; an eagle grasping a fish in its beak (d), this conception being very likely derived from the cock holding the same little creature in its beak; a flying wild duck (c); a musk-deer with a design of a conventionalized bipartite fish on its body (d); a fox lying in ambush (V); frogs (./ andg); a horse and its rider (//); an eagle flapping its wing and having a foot with three outstretched claws (z); what is said to be a glutton (/&).

The ornaments are distributed over four large and twenty-six small quadrangular and ten...

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the American Museum of Natural History, Vol. 7: The Decorative Art of the Amur Tribes What is necessary, first of all, to sift out, is the ornamental art of the Man chu, and those Chinese peoples in the northern part of the Celestial Kingdom bordering on Siberia. The source from which the Amur peoples have drawn may be discovered there. After all, it is clearly too intricate a problem, thus far, to distinguish accurately between what of their art the Amur tribes owe to their masters, and what to themselves. A great many features should be attributed to direct Chinese transmission. On the whole, therefore, the standpoint to be taken, in a consideration of the decorative art of these tribes, must for the present be one that looks upon it as an independent branch of East Asiatic art, which sprang from the sino-japanese cultural centre. The exact historical posi tion of this domain of art in the grand framework of this culture has yet to be ascertained.
