A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The painting Qingming Shang Te Hua (''Scenes along the River during the Qingming Festival''), a more than five-metre-long panorama running from right to left, is considered to be one of the most brilliant works in Chinese art history. A genre painting, it focuses on themes related to daily life, depicting the hustle and bustle in the early 12-century city of Bianjing (modern-day Kaifeng), then the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, as its citizens celebrate the Qingming Festival. This stunning concertina book reproduction is presented in a luxurious, silk-bound edition.

Revue de presse :

"The ink drawings are a day in the life of Bianjing from its outskirts to the heart of the city. It starts on the banks of the river, enters the town, and ends with the watchtower. You'd have to squint at the original to see all this detail, if you got a chance to see the scroll at all. This book is a delight." —McClatchy News Service
