New York: Thames and Hudson; World of Art Ser., 1997. 216 pages, [3] leaves of plates, illustrations (some colour), maps; 21 cm. Tight, clean copy. Spine slightly cocked/lean. "At a time when interest in China has never been greater, this revised edition of Mary Tregear's authoritative survey of the Chinese visual arts will be welcomed by art lovers, travelers, and students alike. Generously illustrated and eminently readable, it covers not only bronzes, jades, calligraphy, and painting, but also Buddhist sculpture, ceramics, textiles, jewelry, lacquer, garden design, and architecture. For the revised edition, Chinese names, places, and terms have been romanized to current international usage. Throughout, information has been updated in view of new finds; there is a new introduction, and the final chapter on twentieth-century art has been completely rewritten. Includes a chronology of Chinese historical periods and six maps." - Publisher.. 2nd. Paperback. Very Good. 8vo.
