Download Early Chinese Texts on Painting Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
For students of Chinese art and culture this anthology has proven invaluable since its initial publication in 1985. It collects important Chinese writings about painting, from the earliest examples through the fourteenth century, allowing readers to see how the art of this rich era was seen and understood in the artists’ own times. Some of the texts in this treasury fall into the broad category of aesthetic theory; some describe specific techniques; some discuss the work of individual artists. The texts are presented in accurate and readable translations, and prefaced with artistic and historical background information to the formative periods of Chinese theory and criticism. A glossary of terms and an appendix containing brief biographies of 270 artists and critics add to the usefulness of this volume.

Download Early Chinese Painting (Classic Reprint) Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Excerpt from Early Chinese Painting With the great T'ang era, 618 to 905, the influence of Buddhism had reached its full, and the three centuries are marked by extreme vigor, and by the definite development of the so-called Northern and Southern Schools. To give this period some illustration to aid our apprehension of its place, we might compare it to the Chaucerian period of English; and then we can think of the equally great Sung period, from 960 to 1280, as comparable in terms to an Elizabethan era, save that in each case we must measure the sustained strength of the periods not by one life or reign, but by the full life of the dynasty, three hundred years.

Download An Annotated Bibliography of Chinese Painting Catalogues and Related Texts Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The student of Chinese painting must from time to time consult John C. Ferguson’s Li-tai chu-lu hua mu, an index to Chinese paintings recorded in Chinese catalogues. The catalogues in which the paintings are compiled are of equal interest: their compilers, the date of their compilation, their scope, their derivation, their merits and shortcomings, and so on. An Annotated Bibliography of Chinese Painting Catalogues and Related Texts provides a way for English-language students with limited knowledge of Chinese to find basic information on the catalogues in an easily available form.
