A Short History of Chinese Art is a comprehensive guide to the artistic traditions of China, written by Ludwig Bachhofer. The book covers the development of Chinese art from prehistoric times to the present day, exploring the major artistic movements, styles, and techniques that have emerged over the centuries. The book begins by examining the early art of China, including the Neolithic period and the Bronze Age, and then moves on to explore the art of the Qin and Han dynasties, which saw the emergence of important artistic traditions such as calligraphy and landscape painting. The book also covers the Tang and Song dynasties, which saw the development of new forms of art such as porcelain and silk painting, as well as the Ming and Qing dynasties, which saw the flourishing of traditional Chinese art forms such as painting, sculpture, and calligraphy. Throughout the book, Bachhofer provides detailed analysis of key works of art, as well as the historical and cultural context in which they were created. He also explores the influence of Chinese art on the wider world, including its impact on Japanese, Korean, and Western art. Overall, A Short History of Chinese Art is an essential guide for anyone interested in the art and culture of China, providing a comprehensive overview of one of the world's richest artistic traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
