The exhibition traveled to Japan through December 1988.; Burghley House is the magnificent Elizabethan home of the Marquess of Exeter at Stamford, England built by William Cecil, the great Minister and Lord High Treasurer to Queen Elizabeth I. The House, which King William III said in 1690 was "too large for a subject!" has among its outstanding collections of paintings, furniture, tapestries, and silver, a rare and superb group of Chinese, Japanese, and European porcelains. The Burghley porcelain collection is distinguished by its early Japanese wares, and is unique among the surviving private and royal porcelain collections in Europe for a number of pieces that can be identified in the House's Inventory of 1688, drawn up by the secretary to the fifth Earl of Exeter, or in the 1690 written bequest of Elizabeth, dowager Countess of Devonshire. The inventories, which only came to light in 1982 after centuries of neglected storage in the archives, are Europe's earliest known record of Japanese porcelains. The porcelains selected here from the Burghley collection tell much about the British canons of taste and achievements in connoisseurship from the Elizabethan through Victorian eras, and shed light as well on the history of Chinese and Japanese export ware and its influence on European culture.

Held at Asia House Gallery New York; Seattle Art Museum Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth; and Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, The Avery Brundage Collection.; Chinese ceramics have been treasured in Japan for over 1200 years. This volume, which focuses on excavated pieces and heirlooms (densei-hin) brought to Japan between the eight and seventeenth centuries, provides a new perspective on China's ceramic art. Assembled here are some of the finest examples of Chinese ceramics acquired by Japanese connoisseurs over the centuries. They range from bold T'ang three-colour wares to luminous Sung celadons and delicate Ming porcelains decorated in vivid polychrome overglazed enamels. The prized possessions of courtiers, warlords, tea masters, and merchants, many of these pieces became so well-known that they were given evocative nicknames. Several, made to order for Japanese customers, have no counterpart in Western collections. In their introductory essays, Seizo Hayashiya, Curator of Applied Arts at the Tokyo National Museum, and Henry Trubner, Associate Director of the Seattle Art Museum, outline the history of Chinese ceramics in Japan and discuss the cultural relationship that has long linked these two countries.

Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Museo d'arte orientale Edoardo Chiossone, Genoa, Italy, March 31, 2017-January 13, 2019. The 'Edoardo Chiossone' Museum of Oriental Art in Genoa holds the Japanese and Chinese art collections which Edoardo Chiossone (Genoa 1833-Tokyo 1898), distinguished Genoese professor of design and engraving techniques, gathered during his over 23-year stay in Japan, from 1875 until his death in early April 1898. Thanks to their ample variety, the collections allow for studying and researching both the history of Japanese art and the artistic and cultural relations between Japan and China. In this regard, of particular importance is the bronze and metal ware collection, featuring archaistic pieces datable from the Song dynasty (960-1279) until the late Qing dynasty (1644-1911). Besides documenting the plurisecular, multifaceted Chinese interest in Antiquity, the Chiossone collection also attests to the Japanese taste and tradition of gathering Chinese bronze vessels between the 13th and 19th centuries, that is, from the Kamakura and Muromachi periods up to the Meiji era. Initially cultivated by Buddhist clergy in the Kamakura period and then passing to the military aristocracy of the Muromachi period, this collecting tradition spread in the 16th century amongst the masters of flower arrangement and of chanoyu, the tea ceremony, and, from the mid-18th century until the late 19th century, amongst the senchajin and bunjin, adepts of the 'way of steeped tea' (senchado) and men of letters, respectively, who fervently admired Chinese civilization.
