Synopsis "Dragons & Pagodas: A Celebration of Chinoiserie"

A gorgeously illustrated survey of chinoiserie from the 18th century to today Chinoiserie is a term for Western art and design inspired by a largely invented vision of China. Marco Polo's sensational account of his visit to the exotic East in the 13th century sparked a fascination with China that reached a fever pitch in the 18th century and continues to this day. Art historian and artist Aldous Bertram has long been captivated by chinoiserie. Dragons & Pagodas is organized by theme, including porcelain, color and pattern, flora, fauna, and architecture. Each chapter is bursting with images ranging from grand European summer palaces and whimsical pagoda follies to charming details of screens, porcelain figurines, and ornate plasterwork. Complete with Bertram's own chinoiserie-inspired watercolors and collages, Dragons & Pagodas is an irresistible confection and an example of chinoiserie in its own right. -Cloth bound with edge stain

Dragons & Pagodas es una hermosa obra que muestra la influencia del estilo chinoiserie en la decoración, la arquitectura, la porcelana , la jardinería y otras expresiones artísticas. Sus espléndidas imágenes de interiores y jardines palaciegos del siglo XVIII ilustran las claves del estilo. Un libro de colección.
