"The collection of the National Palace Museum is made up largely of the personal holdings of the Ch'ien-lung emperor (reigned 1736-95). Representing the artistic legacy of imperial China, it offers an unsurpassed view of Chinese civilization. The objects lavishly illustrated and described in this book, which include magnificent ritual bronzes, precious jades, monumental landscape paintings, and exquisite ceramics, are among the finest ever created." "Published to accompany the exhibition "Splendors of Imperial China: Treasures from the National Palace Museum, Taipei," the book takes the reader through the most significant periods of Chinese culture: its foundations in the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, its flowering in the sophisticated world of the Sung dynasty, its exuberance during the Ming, and its technical brilliance under the Manchus. The author makes the unique beauty of this art accessible through comparisons of selected works and through discussion of their historical context."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Based on the widely praised traveling exhibition that opened at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in March 1996, this CD-ROM presents more than 475 of the finest works in the National Palace Museum, Taipei. Formed by the emperors themselves, this extraordinary collection embodies the genius of China's rich artistic tradition. The only official "catalogue" of the exhibition, the CD-ROM contains full-color images of each masterpiece along with such special features as close-up details, audio pronunciations of Chinese terms and names, and the ability to unroll precious handscrolls to their full length. Also included are informative texts, biographies, translations, maps, a chronology, a glossary, and an index. The related exhibition also appeared in Chicago and San Francisco and will be at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, from January 26 through April 6, 1997.
