See images for condition. About the book >.>.> The porcelain of the Y?an and early Ming dynasties from China is amongst the most beau…tiful of the world. Great dishes and bowls gorgeously decorated in blue or red; white ones where the decoration is all but hidden beneath the glaze to the casual viewer-all can delight and please now, just as when they were made. As Sir John Addis aptly remarks: 'The eye sometimes surfeited with the glories of blue-and-white can turn with special satisfaction to underglaze-red, not only to the spectacular tomato and cherry-reds, but also to the subtle shades of sepia, chestnut and grey'. This splendid group of porcelain is one of the most important gifts made in recent years to the British Museum. It is also most unusual in being 'tailor-made' over many years to amplify the existing collection. Sir John Addis's discriminat-ing choice of pieces sometimes neglected by the art-historian and connoisseur are pieces which can be enjoyed on their own merits and which also cast new.
