Showcasing more than thirty ancient bronzes from the exceptional
holdings of the Shanghai Museum, this generously illustrated book
offers a compelling overview of the beauty of Chinese bronzes and
the fascinating traditions surrounding them. These important
objects, many of which have never before appeared in an
English-language publication, date from the 18th to the 1st century
B.C.E. and span numerous dynasties. Highlights of the exhibition
include an early thin-wall cast three-legged food vessel (ding)
from the Erlitou period, a set of nine bells (bianzhong) from the
early Spring and Autumn period, and a beast-shaped wine vessel (he)
from the early Warring States period. An accessible essay serves as
an introduction to these masterpieces, and sumptuous, newly
commissioned photography makes this publication a standout addition
to the literature on Asian bronze sculpture. Distributed for the
Clark Art Institute Exhibition Schedule: The Clark Art Institute
