Описание: The Yongle Emperor (1403-1424) was considered the most powerful, effective, and extravagant ruler of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644). Major military
campaigns and unprecedented maritime expeditions marked his reign. Yongle is also credited with moving the capital from the south to the northern capital of Beijing, establishing the
Forbidden City.
In Beijing, Yongle inherited the imperial workshops instituted by the Mongol rulers of the preceding Yuan dynasty (1279-1368). The superb sculptures,
lacquers, metalwork, ceramics, textiles, and ivories produced during Yongle's reign show the following influences: Islamic metalwork and glass on porcelains, and Tibetan Buddhist
motifs on decorative arts and sculpture. As this book demonstrates, the art of this phase of the Ming dynasty clearly had a seminal role in the development of later Chinese decorative
arts.

Описание: The choice of a frame affects the way we view a work of art in multiple ways, even when we are not aware of it. In this study, W.H. Bailey, an artist, designer and frame consultant, shows how the frame is a vital part of viewing pictures and integral to their presentation. He shatters preconceived notions of borders and aims to change the way we see and understand art. Bailey examines 56 paintings - including some well-known masterpieces - to explore how their frames, many designed by the artists themselves, relate to the pictures they surround.
