This groundbreaking catalogue is the first of its kind to examine the exquisite Chinese brown- and black-glazed wares (including those commonly known as "Temmoku"), tracing their evolution and development from the fifth to the fifteenth century. Illustrated with fine and important pieces from famous museum and private collections, it includes excellent essays and definitive entries by Robert D. Mowry, with contibutions on specific historical and technical aspects by Eugene Farrell and Nicole Coolidge Rousmaniere. Reviewed by many experts, this book has become a standard textbook for students of Chinese ceramics and an essential reference for collectors, scholars, and other interested readers.

The catalog to an exhibition at the Arthur M. Sackler Museum at Harvard U., this attractive volume includes a lengthy essay on Chinese tomb sculpture, written by Bower, an independent scholar. Most of the volume contains full-page color plates of Solomon's extraordinary collection, with pieces from the Han through the Tang dynasties. A checklist lists the descriptive name of each work, its materials, period, and date, the latter verified with a thermoluminescence test. No mention is made of the objects' provenance nor is there an index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
