Abstract
The book of the exhibition showing at the National Museum of Scotland 27 June-19 October 2014. A collection of original Ming artefacts from Nanjing Museum, including Chinese National Treasures, are on display in the only UK showing of this internationally significant exhibition. The exhibition - and the book - showcase exquisite paintings, gold, porcelain, textiles, pottery and calligraphy. Beautiful furniture, musical instruments, Buddhist artefacts and items of personal adornment also help to bring to life the elegant tastes and concerns of this gilded age.
