Description
A richly illustrated standard work for lovers of Chinese porcelain and symbolism. This beautiful book by Eva Ströber - published by Arnoldsche - shows through some 90 masterpieces how lucky signs, mythical animals, lotus flowers, mandarin ducks, clouds, bats and countless other auspicious motifs were used to express wealth, prosperity and long life.
Set out in thematic chapters, the work is ideal for collectors who want to better understand the significance of decorations on Ming, Qing and export porcelain. The photography is clear, the explanations expert, and the selection of objects comes from the Princessehof Ceramics Museum in Leeuwarden, among others.
