's Ministry of Culture, this is an exploration of the themes of innovation and transformation during the great eras of Chinese art, from the Neolithic period to the mid-19th century. The book discusses and illustrates seven major mediums: jade (including examples from the Neolithic period), ritual bronzes from the Shang and Zhou dynasties, low-fired ceramics from the Qing and Han to the Tang periods, porcelain from antiquity to the Song period and the Ming and Qing dynasties, landscape painting and calligraphy (including rare early Song handscrolls and the hanging scrolls of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties), sculpture (including large stone Buddhist statues), and textiles.
