Exhibition Public - Asia |
Detail: This exhibition showcases a series of 34 paintings recently acquired by the Museum. They document the process of making and trading porcelain from the famous Jingdezhen kilns, from mining the clay to selling the porcelain to foreign merchants through local dealers. Painted for the Western market, these illustrations vividly capture the work of the many specialised labourers as well as the way in which the trade and transport of the finished porcelain was arranged. |
