About This Item
Oriental Ceramic Society and British Museum, London (1984). Fine/Fine. Large quarto, hardcover, fine in fine brown pictorial dj. An exhibition organized by The Oriental Ceramic Society jointly with The British Museum; with 20 colour and 320 monochrome illustrations. 200 pages. Comparatively little has been written on Chinese ivory carving, and the present catalogue fills a notable gap in the history of Chinese art. The arrangement of the exhibits and explanatory texts are devised to represent the craft in the three thousand years of its history, and to clarify the place of ivories in the artistic exchange between China and western nations.
