Good copy overall.; Catalogue from an exhibition shown at Japan House Gallery, New York from May 15-July 27, 1986 and at The High Museum of Art, Atlanta from December 2, 1986- February 1, 1987. 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.…
