These are shown together with extremely fine intact examples from the collection of the Gugong Palace Museum in Beijing plus a few intact pieces loaned from other museums in China.

This Gugong Museum catalogue also has much more comparison of excavated and reconstructed pieces from Jingdezhen alongside intact examples from the Gugong collection.

Half cloth. £300.00 Beautifully-produced catalogue of a very short-lived (8 days!) and very focussed exhibition at Liuzhou Museum in Guangxi province in China. Featured 31 very fine examples of xuande-style bronzes dating from the final reign of the Ming dynasty, that of the Chongzhen Emperor (r.1611-1644). Despite his reign seeing the fall of the Ming dynasty, this was a time when material and literati culture in China was at a high point and this is reflected in the quality of these bronzes. Their style emulates bronze incense burners produced during the Ming Xuande reign (1425-1435), when production of such incense burners was considered to be at the peak of achievement and sophistication. Ever since, ‘xuande’ bronzes have been widely copied and this catalogue is of much use as a visual reference and for research into such bronzes accepted as dating from the end of the Ming dynasty. Twelve of the bronzes exhibited have basemark seals with Chongzhen cyclical dates, 8 with Chongzhen period seals/hall marks and 10 with Xuande base marks. A final and notable exhibit was an incense burner from the collection of Wang Shixiang. The bronzes come from the collection of Liuzhou Museum and members LIST 198 – 5 – NEW & RECENT PUBLICATIONS

While a number of ultra-leftist ‘bon mots’ survive, it is far more difficult to find, in the revision, examples of essential usages, such as (for ‘red’) ‘with a red heart always loyal to the Party’, or (for ‘sharpen’) ‘sharpen one’s ability to to distinguish between genuine and sham Marxism’.

Cloth, in a cloth case. £275.00 An excellent, well-illustrated three-volume catalogue of some of the most interesting rarities in Chinese bibliography. All the items discussed are types of manuscript editions; each volume of the catalogue is devoted to a particular category. The ﬁrst and third categories correspond to similar Western examples: manuscripts ‘per se’ and hand-annotated editions of (chieﬂy) printed books — both categories may be valuable not only for any intrinsic interest or rarity of the text, but also for the association of the author of the manuscript or the manuscript notations. The second category is less familiar in the West. Due to the nature of the Chinese script, and the relative ex- pense of reprinting texts for which the woodcut blocks are lost, the practice of making manuscript copies of entire books was much more common and persistent than in the West. Whereas we associate the ‘scriptoria’ of monasteries with the middle ages, in China individual scholars are, to this day, wont to copy out the entire text of rare books, often for their own use, from library or private collection copies. Again, over time, some of these ‘chaoben’ become treasured for the fame of their once-humble copyists. The earliest manuscripts ‘per se’ in this catalogue date from the Yuan period, but volume two has a Northern Wei period manuscript from Dun- huang, reminding us that China also has its special tradition of Buddhist ‘scriptoria’.

The catalogue is based on the fine collections of the Shanghai Library (which, with the Beijing Library, is a sort of second National Library of China), augmented with a number held elsewhere.

Thorough and often highly detailed notes on each item follow the illustrations, including brief biographies of the authors. In Chinese only.

(19th century) Various paginations. Colour and b/w woodblock illustrations throughout. 5 vols. 27x17 cm. Stitched, in a cloth case. £2,500.00 A fine facsimile reprint of the first complete part (chuji) of the Kaihsien Gaden, based on the Japanese edition first published by Hishiya Magobei in Kyoto in 1780. The Kaishien Gaden is the Japanese for the Jieziyuan Huazhuan (The Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting) first published in China in 1679. The Manual provoked great interest in Japan and parts of the work were published in Japan from 1744 onwards. The first complete set (comprising parts 1-3) was published by Hishiya Magobei in 1780. The copy of part one offered here is undated but likely to be a Meiji edition. It is in very good condition and has interesting provenance, from a Boston collector. The front of the case has an inscribed book plate with a seal (as yet undeciphered) and a signature that may read ‘J. E. Grofrey.’ The same seal is impressed on the book labels of the separate fascicles and on the front cover of the first along with a western-style seal impression, reading ‘M.G.R.’ and with three characters probably intended to be read as the Chinese name of the collector. This seal impression also appears inside the cover of the case. The work is illustrated throughout with a combination of black-and-white and colour woodblock printing. The colour printing is very pleasing. Overall the work presents itself as a fine example of early Chinese printing of the Kangxi reign and testament to the influence of the work in Japan. All text in Chinese. The contents of Part 1 of the Jieziyuan Huazhuan covered Trees, Rocks and Landscapes: Vol. 1: Text. Vols. 2, 3 and the first half of Vol. 4 — b/w woodblock images; latter part of vol. 4 and vol. 5 colour woodblock images. In fine condition. Original beige covers with title slips to all volumes.
