102 pages. A sumptuously presented selection of the art collection displayed in The Regent in Hong Kong. This is a collection carefully acquired not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for the elements of oriental symbolism that are represented. Includes fine examples of skilfully executed screens, lacquerware and embroidery. There are specimens of Chinese export wallpaper, and several nineteenth-century China Trade oil paintings. These became popular as artistic records of the cultural and trading contacts of their period and are now collector's items. The selection of maps traces the pattern of adventure and romantic trade and travel over the centuries. Finally, a group of contemporary works pleasantly relate the collection to modern artistic trends. All illustrations in vivid colour photography. Attractive maroon cloth boards bear imprint of Chinese characters upon front board and gilt roman lettering upon spine. Illustrated slipcase shows light edgewear and several nicks. Book and slipcase bear the aroma of moth balls. Book

Tutta l’annata 1851, rilegata insieme, in-folio, mezza pelle con titolo impresso in oro al dorso, con paginazione continua 1- 213. Giunto alla legatura una custodia che contiene 60 tavole principalmente grandi fogli per cartamodelli ripiegati, e alcune stampe di moda. La ricamatrice è una rivista di costume, moda e attualità, vi si parla di lavori femminili soprattutto ricami, confezione di abiti e ccina, ma anche di eventi come l’Esposizione generale di Londra del 1851. “L’editore si ispirò ai giornali americani come «Englishwoman’s domestic magazine», che proponevano articoli di educazione sociale fornendo alla donna gli strumenti per affrontare i problemi inerenti l’amministrazione domestica e la cura della casa, reputando il lavoro casalingo una vera e propria professione che richiedeva un bagaglio di istruzioni teoriche integrate da consigli pratici. Se nel passato il ricamo era stato uno strumento per tenere le donne lontane dalla vita sociale, ora i lavori d’ago e il ricamo erano promossi a mezzo di sostentamento per le donne che, non ancora sposate, avevano bisogno di lavorare: atteggiamento propositivo tipico della mentalità borghese”.
