Summary; "This stunning two-volume book is the long-awaited catalogue of the exquisite collection of Ch'ing (Qing) dynasty imperial textiles and costumes from the collection of The Minneapolis Institute of Arts. This collection has a rich history. Approximately half of it belonged to the San Francisco attorney William E. Colby, who had amassed the collection throughout the opportunistic decades of the 1920's and 1930's, and was acquired by The Minneapolis Institute of Arts under the advice of Alfred Pillsbury. Now consisting of over 600 items, it is considered one of the finest and most comprehensive holdings of Ch'ing textiles outside of China." Subjects; Minneapolis Institute of Arts Catalogs.

Zustand: Sehr gut. 247 S. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Chinese furniture in the collection ofThe Minneapolis Institute of Arts is remarkable for the extraordinary examples of forms represented and also for the unique architectural installation. The Chinese galleries include a large Ming-dynasty ceremonial hall taken from the Wu Family house and an extremely well-preserved library that dates to 1797, the middle of the Qing dynasty. The two structures show the different stylistic approaches represented by the Ming and Qing dynasties and the interdependence of Chinese furniture and architecture. Chinese furniture has its roots in architecture. A Ming- or Qing-dynasty cabinetmaker used essentially the same techniques and tools as a carpenter from the same period. Although carpentry and cabinetmaking have always been allied fields, we know very little about the early origins of Chinese furniture. Written records are difficult to interpret, and almost no full-scale examples have survived that antedate the Ming dynasty.Excavated tombs with fresco paintings record some types of furniture, but these were, like those in later paintings, not necessarily intended as exact representations.

When the Commonwealth Government assented to the War Precautions Act in 1914, it was decided that people who were of German origin or descent, as well as those from countries allied with Germany, might be a security risk, and so places had to be found to detain them. At first people were detained in army barracks or training camps but the government soon realised they would need more permanent accommodation and set up camps in specific locations, one of these being the German Concentration Camp at Holsworthy in the Liverpool district. As early as September 1914 about 100 seamen who had been taken from German and English ships arrived at the camp. Others soon followed from various locations. . .''(see 'The Dictionary of Sydney', online); letzendlich waren es bis zu 6.000 Internierte . . .
