Catalog of an exhibition organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in collaboration with the Percival David Foundation of Chinese Art. Many of the porcelains in this volume were once owned by Chinese emperors: all are extraordinary specimens. Ranging from the ninth to the 18th centuries, they opitomize the sophistication of imperial Chinese taste. Five essays by scholars of Chinese art describe the significance of these ceramics and review recent archaeological developments contributing to their study. Fine color plates. No index.
