[Rarebooks] FS: Chinese Prints of the Ten Bamboo Studio

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

TITLE: “The Prints of the Ten Bamboo Studio. Followed by Plates from the
Kaempfer Series and Perfect Harmony”

By Joseph Vedlich.
Published in New York by Crescent Books in 1979.

DISCUSSION: "This book contains reproductions, with commentaries, of
plates from a treatise of Chinese painting first published in 1619 and
which has always been considered as a classic in China. The plates have
often been reproduced in the West, but very rarely in color; the color
transparencies used in this edition were made specifically for the book by
the British Museum. In addition, the book contains some outstandingly
beautiful plates from the Kaempfer Series, a famous collection of ancient
Chinese lithographic masterpieces also provided by the British Museum, as
well as the complete reproduction of a work entitled 'Perfect Harmony'
(Musee Guimet des Arts Orient, Paris) which has never been reproduced
before".

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 8.5"x11", 122 pages, color illustrations, dust
jacket.

CONDITION NOTES: The dust jacket has some light wear and soil. The book
itself has some minor soil, but otherwise is clean and nice, with a tight
binding.

PRICE: $60 -
