Index Of Early Chinese Painters And Paintings

A comprehensive English-language compilation on Chinese painters and their works from the late 6th century through to the mid-14th century. Incorporating the work of Ellen Johnston Laing and Osvald Siren, whom Professor Cahill studied under as a graduate student, the "Index" includes biographical details of the artists, their "style" and "studio" names, where their works are located or have been published, and information on materials, signatures, seals and inscriptions. An extensive bibliography focuses on reproductions of the works in Chinese, Japanese and Western publications, which should make the index a useful research tool for all students, collectors and connoiseurs of Chinese art.
