Artisans in Early Imperial China

Beschreibung

Early China is best known for the dazzling artifacts it has left behind. This book examines the social context in which these terracotta figures, gilt-bronze lamps, and other objects unearthed during archaeological excavations were created and the lives of the real individuals who made them. From workshops to marketplace to the court, Barbieri-Low explores these artisans' lives and careers from a variety of aspects and humanizes the remains of the past.
