À propos de l'auteur

Born in Egypt, of European parents, Daniel Nadler is an American living in New York. A graduate of Cornell University and a Professional Engineer, his career in building construction has taken him overseas, and he also has traveled widely. For decades, Mr. Nadler and his Iranian wife, Serga, have been drawn to Chinese Export polychrome porcelain which they found scattered throughout New England and elsewhere in their travels. As their small collection grew, questions caused by lack of information concerning late wares, stimulated their curiosity. An attempt to piece together the evolution of enamelled wares, focussing largely on XIXth century pieces, produced this survey. As a backdrop to evolution of porcelain decoration, Mr. Nadler presents the historical background of China during the two-and-a-half centuries of Qing rule. Aside from collecting porcelain, Mr. Nadler always has had interest in photography which expanded to include computers. Photographs and digitized files for most of the illustrations in this text were taken by the Nadlers.
