註釋The collection forms the basis for The Asia Society, founded by John D. Rockefeller 3rd in 1956. Although small relative to other such collections (it comprises 285 objects), it contains a high proportion of acclaimed masterpieces and is especially strong in ceramics and sculpture. The text introduces the general reader to concepts and historical trends and incorporates scholarly opinions on attributions and dates. An introductory essay by Sherman E. Lee, the Rockefellers' professional advisor for the collection, discusses their motives and methods. Some 300 color plates visualize the works in this first catalog of the complete collection. 9.5x12" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
