Part of the reason is location for New Guinea is a remote island the size of France and Italy combined just east of Indonesia and hovering above Australia in the South Pacific. . The appeal of New Guinea art lies in its extraordinary resourcefulness and creativity. For centuries the people there have made objects in order to communicate and interact with the spirit world. Many of the objects based on myths and ancient religious themes are the equal of many of the world's great sculptural masterpieces. Some were made in response to health or fertility or rites of passage; others signified an individual's stature in a village; and others invoked the end of a mourning ritual or warded off evil and sickness. . The art of New Guinea can be seen in its fullest and richest depiction ever in this elegantly presented two-volume publication. More than 600 masterworks come from Marcia and John Friede who have devoted decades to the study and pursuit of these works. ." <br><br>CONDITION: Both volumes are fine in fine dust jackets. The slipcase is near fine with some rubbing and scratching at the bottom along with a minor corner bump at the head at the back.

Nestled in a beige clamshell case with fold out enclosures each plate is numbered 1 to 178 and are all present. Some plates bear a full-color tipped in reproduction of each art piece; all others in black and white against a cream cardstock paper. Some plates frame the tipped in image in a debossed border within the paper. Each full plate measures 18.75" tall x 13 2/16" wide with varying sizes of art pieces thereon. Two booklets are enclosed one written in English 30 pages and one written in Chinese 45 pages containing the plate number title artist artist's medium catalogued number and collection and a detailed description of the piece. The English booklet also includes an index of artists and sources of acquisition. The case bears two closures which secure at the foredge with plastic/bone-like pin clasps and gold gilt debossed lettering on the cover and spine. The case's inner lining is a navy blue cloth and cream paper with the inner flap closures lined with cream paper. This collection and case are housed in the original plain cardboard box with a cream label with the title in a light brown on the front. Two cardboard surrounds protect the case within the box and are both present. The box itself measures 19.5" tall x 14" wide x 2.5" thick. The entire collection within the outer cardboard box weighs 19 lbs.<br><br>ARTISTS WORK REPRESENTED WITHIN ARE: Chang Hung Chao Meng-fu Chao Yung Ch'a Shih-piao Ch'eng Cheng-k'uei Ch'ien Hsuan Ch'iu Ying Ch'ien Wei-ch'eng; Chou Ch'en Chou Chih Chu Ta Chu Tuan Hsia Yung Hsiang Sheng-mo Hsieh Shin-ch'en Hsu Pen Hua Yen Huang I Hung-jen Kao Cheng-mo Kao Ch'i-p'ei Lan Ying Leng Mei Li Liu-fang Li Yin Lu Chih P'u-ho Shang Jui Shen Chou Shen Shih-ch'ung Shih Chung T'ang Yin Tao-chi Tsou Chih-lin Tung Ch'i-ch'ang Wang Chen-p'eng Wang Hui Want Lo Wang Meng Wang Shih-min Wang Yuan-ch'i Wang Yun Wen Cheng-ming Wen Chia Wu Chen Wu Huan Wu Li Wu Tan Wu Wei Yao Yen-ch'ing Yen Hue Yen Hung-tzu Yo Tai Yuan Chiang Yuan Yao Yun Shou-p'ing Yung Jung and other anonymous artists. <br><br>FROM THE FORWARD of the English booklet: "In the Occident wide interest in the great art legacies of China has long been evident. Only during the past three decades however has the true appreciation of Chinese paintings become apparent. Today public museums and private collectors are striving to acquire masterpieces. Fortunately this Museum recognized the significance of the pictorial art of China as far back as the early nineties and beginning with the purchase of five paintings by Chou Ching-ch'ang dated 1178-1190 has ever since been assembling worthy paintings. Now it holds an enviable position among similar collections in the world.<br><br>In 1933 the Museum published a Portfolio of Chinese Paintings in the Museum Han to Sung Periods. As its sequel the Museum now offers to the public this Portfolio containing reproductions of paintings from the Yuan Ming and Ch'ing dynasties roughly from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century. <br><br>Anyone who has delved into the field of Chinese paintings is aware that many works especially after the Yuan period bear inscriptions usually of a poetic nature appropriate to the subjects depicted. The reason is not far to seek for many of the celebrated artists were not professional painters but men of letters some of them holding high governmental offices. To them the art of painting was but one of the cultural accomplishments like calligraphy and poetry. It was therefore natural for them to express on the pictorial works their calligraphic skill and poetic thoughts. Thus a picture and the literary writing upon it became integral parts. For this reason included in the descriptive section of this Portfolio are translations of such Chinese inscriptions. One acquainted with the Chinese language knows that a literal rendering of a Chinese composition into English is well-nigh impossible because of the frequent allusions to classical literature and also because of the hidden or double meanings of some phrases. Consequently the English versions which are incorporated in the descriptions are free interpretations. The transcriptions of the original inscriptions are to be found in the catalogue in Chinese accompanying the Portfolio. <br><br>The paintings reproduced in the Portfolio came from individuals as gifts or were acquired from individuals as gifts or were acquired from funds established by legacies. It is regrettable that all of these generous friends are no longer with us. May this publication be regarded as an expression of the deep gratitude of the Department which has been privileged to build the collection!" - Kojiro Tomita Curator of Asiatic Art<br><br>CONDITION: Very near fine this collection is absolutely lovely. Stunning and even in its original box. Light offset/toning on the cover of booklets from flap closure impression. Very small spotting on the inside front cover of the clamshell box. Some mild toning on the backs of plates. Small tear at the inside bottom of the case else beautifully fine. No creasing whatsoever. Art pieces are crisp and perfect. A wonderful collection. Outer cardboard storage box shows wear and discoloration and previous owner's label with notation dated 1978. Due to the size and weight of this item an additional shipping charge will apply and will be requested post ordering. Please note that the set will be delivered with signature required.

Gustave Doré 1832–1883 was the greatest illustrator of 19th-century France and the leading book illustrator of his day. His startling conceptions and brooding surreal imagery lent overwhelming power to his often definitive illustrations of the classics: The Divine Comedy Gargantua and Pantagruel The Rime of the Ancient Mariner and the Bible among others. In 1879 having produced over 90 illustrated books he published the last major work of his illustrious career: 618 illustrations for Ludovico Ariosto's magnificent epic poem Orlando Furioso. Little known today the work contains some of Doré's finest illustrations.Ariosto's poem combines medieval legends of King Arthur and Charlemagne in a long complex narrative involving scores of characters numerous interweaving subplots and many interpolated tales. The conflict of Christian versus Moor provides the epic background of the work.The present volume contains 208 of Doré's finest illustrations for the poem painstakingly reproduced from a beautifully printed 19th-century German edition. Included are all 81 full-page plates the large frontispiece many other illustrations that fill an entire Dover page and a generous sampling of smaller chiefly zinc-engraved plates. The latter consist of many lively and felicitous drawings reproduced directly from Doré's originals without the intermediate service of his team of wood engravers. 153pp.<br><br>CONDITION: Light sunning on the back cover otherwise covers are fine. Pages are crisp and clean. Binding and text block are tight. Full refund if not satisfied. Dover Publications paperback
