Description:
2019. 400 pages, 240 colour illustrations. Hardback 27x21cms. ISBN: 9788874398386. This volume unites two hundred examples of Chinese monochrome porcelain from the Baur Collections in Geneva and the Zhuyuetang Collection in the Bamboo and Moon Pavilion in Hong Kong. These include imperial ceramics from the Tang, Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties. The text studies the historical, cultural, and technical contexts in which these pieces were made, and the values of simplicity and modesty espoused by classical Chinese texts that their restrained elegance reflects.
