Beschreibung
Folio. 203, [1]pp. Original illustrated dust-jacket over blind-stamped red cloth, with gold lettering on spine. This is probably the most sumptious reference book on Qing Imperial Court Dress published in English. The book clarifies the codification of sartorial rules allowed for by Imperial decree during the Qing realm. In 1759, the Qianlong Emperor of China commissioned a catalog of comprehensive, illustrated regulations for ceremonial garments and accessories worn by the members of the imperial household. Not since the "Huangchao Liqi Tushi" was written have we seen a more stunning look at the colors, designs, and insignias of China's last imperial dynasty. With detailed descriptions and exquisite illustrations, this invaluable reference preserves the fashionable side of China's dynastic history for generations to come. Includes numerous clear photographic examples with fantastic color reproductions of artifacts, such as all the dragon robes, headdress, overcoats, shoes, belts, beads and accessories. Minor shelf wear. Dust-jacket, binding and interior in overall very good condition. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 37958
