The prints of The Ten Bamboo Studio followed by plates from the Kaempfer Series and Perfect Harmony. Selection of classical Chinese texts. Presentation by Joseph Vedlich. This book contains reproductions, with commentaries, of plates from a treatise of Chinese painting first published in 1619 and which has always been considered as a classic in China. These plates have often been reproduced in the West, but very rarely in color; the color transparencies used in our edition were made specially for us by the British Museum.
