It also provides a colorful guide to the course of Chinese art from the Neolithic Age to the eve of its industrialization and re~emergence on the world stage. The art and history of this fascinating country are seen through the perceptive eyes and the skilled hands of Chinese artists who in each era recorded the life of their times. The book moves dramatically forward as the pageant of Chinese history unfolds, allowing the reader to look over the shoulder of the artist as he mirrors the period in which he lived. Each carefully researched chapter has its own separate history and art chronologies so that the reader can easily follow the path of Chinese culture and emerge with a real knowledge of its development and achievement. A comprehensive map illustrates the territorial evolution. In 296 pages the reality and the spirituality of the Chinese people are recorded. There are 305 plates, all in full color, showing many of the greatest Chinese treasures. They have been newly photographed in the museums and private collections of three continents. They tell the sequential story of China through the centuries. …
