Large and heavy two-volume work studying blue-and-white Qing dynasty ceramics made for imperial court use. The term now coined for these ceramics appears to be 'dayun' (mass production). Whilst thousands of such ceramics were produced, all were to an exceptionally high quality. They were viewed as distinct from the two other categories produced for the court - 'chuanban' (commissioned specifically by the Emperor) and 'gongci' (pieces presented as tribute to the Emperor). Dayun ceramics were produced from the Kangxi through to the Xuantong reigns and are of much use for the study of the characteristics and evolvement of firing techniques throughout the Qing dynasty and seeks to resolve a number of academic questions. Five essays accompany. This work also serves as a comprehensive survey of Qing dynasty imperial ceramic production. The illustrations are arranged by types of design - lotus, birds-and-flowers, phoenix etc. etc. - and chronologically within each section. Some 230 ceramics are illustrated, many in multiple views and showing basemarks. It seems that a good number have not been previously published. Introductions, list of contents, brief abstracts to the essays, and captions to plates in English. Main text in Chinese.
