Mirroring China’s Past: Emperors, Scholars, and Their Bronzes

In addition to examining the daily rituals surrounding these ancient objects, this book is the first to trace the tradition of collecting Chinese bronzes. This unique and contemporary perspective is expressed visually through the contrast between the highly detailed objects and the clean, crisp context of our book design.
