Description

Lavishly illustrated auction catalogue from Bonhams for the auction Chinese & other Asian Works of Art, held on 13 May 2013 in London.

The catalogue presents a wide selection of Chinese and other Asian art from various periods and collecting areas. Covered are, among other things, porcelain and ceramics, jade, cloisonné and various other works of art.

The individual lots have been extensively photographed in colour and provided with English-language catalogue descriptions. Attention is also paid to such details as material, form, decoration, dating and marks. Where available, provenance, previous collections and supplementary background information are also mentioned.

The many images make the catalogue useful as a visual reference work for comparing shapes, materials, decorations and stylistic features. The combination of Chinese art with other Asian works of art also offers a broader picture of what was available on the London market during this period.
