Hugh Scott 
Golden Age of Chinese Art [EPUB ebook] 
The Lively T’ang Dynasty

For almost three hundred years the noble T’ang Dynasty fostered a period of artistic and intellectual endeavor which has never been equaled in the history of China. Sculpture, ceramics, glass, and textiles were some of the major artifacts that emerged from this glorious renaissance of Chinese taste and skill.


This book is the story of the T’ang told through objects in the author’s collection, one of the most representative in private hands. It includes a marvelous array of gold and silver mirrors, jade, jewelry and gilt bronzes.


The 124 illustrations, 24 in full color are accompanied by a history of the T’ang era, and a chapter on each of the categories in the collection gives a comprehensive background to the illustrations.


The knowledgeable comments of a well-known collector are authoritative, and will be invaluable to other collectors, was well as to all connosseurs of Chinese art.
