The Moore collection contains extraordinary illustrations from some of them most important painters and calligraphers in the long history of Chinese art. The subject matter of the book is traversed by the authors of the volume with scholarship and taste their text being accompanied by the fine illustrations most of them in monochrome and some in colour. The authors are full and illuminating in their descriptions their biographical and bibliographical contributions along with their treatment of the inscriptions and seals. The reason for bringing the inscriptions and seals into the foreground is because "calligraphy has long been considered a major art by the Chinese who frequently valued the inscription on a painting as highly or even more highly than the painting itself. A number of the scrolls depicted have inscriptions which certify their authenticity and are also the calligraphy of famous scholars. These contain many valuable comments on the technique of painting and statements of historical and biographical importance. The seals on the scrolls are not only works of art in themselves but are important as a record of the painting or as an expression of appreciation of it." The painters represented come from various dynasties in their noblest estate painters eloquent of the great virtues of the school--a peculiar magic in the interpretation of nature felicity in composition and linear aspect. The plates provide well the Chinese ideas of beauty and style. R. Cortissoz Oxford University Press hardcover
