The production of bronze vessels in ancient China spans a period of
eighteen centuries - from the Shang dynasty, c.17th century BC, to
the Han dynasty, 3rd century AD. Cast in large numbers, they were
used for ritual ceremonies and in burial. Illustrated throughout
from bronzes in the Ashmolean's collection, this book does not
attempt a comprehensive history of bronze casting in China, but is
intended to serve as an introduction to what is a complex but
fascinating subject.
