Through an analysis of their patronage of architecture, calligraphy, painting and other art forms, and through a study of the contents of their splendid and recently excavated tombs, this innovative study puts the aristocracy back at the heart of accounts of China's culture, from which they have been excluded until very recently. Screen of Kings challenges much of the received wisdom about Ming China. Craig Clunas sheds new light on many familiar artworks, as well as works that have never before been reproduced. New archaeological discoveries have furnished the author with evidence of the lavish and spectacular lifestyles of these provincial princes and demonstrate how central the imperial family was to the high culture of the Ming era." -- Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Art, Chinese $y Ming-Qing dynasties, 1368-1912. 650 0 $a Aristocracy (Social class) $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Art patronage $z China $x History. 941 $a 4 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214015016.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826080811.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917013335.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20131105014620.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=48650BC045E811E3A4FDE4CADAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
