Veel biografische informatie over schilders, maar natuurlijk niet meer op de stand van het onderzoek. [BtH]
Chinese painting, sculpture, ceramics, textiles and bronzes
Translated from The Walls and Gates of Beijing by Osvald Siren (Sweden) published in 1924
This book is a selection of 25 specimens from Mr. A.W. Bahr's collection of Chinese paintings at Weybridge, Surrey.

The intention of the book is to make accessible, via quality reproductions, characteristic examples for the student and amateur of early Chinese painting.

Includes paintings from the Five Dynasties period, or earlier, to the Ming Dynasty.
