‎[CHINA - WATERCOLOUR].‎

‎17 Chinese watercolours made for the export market.China first half of the 19th century. Collection of 17 Chinese watercolours on Asian paper with chain lines including 3 of birds seated on a branch 3 of ensembles of fruit and flowers and 5 of fishes all ca. 30 x 37 .5 cm; 2 further watercolours each showing 2 branches of flowers and trees in a drawn oval border ca. 39 x 30 cm; and 4 watercolours of Chinese people posing with objects ca. 25 x 21 cm. In a modern gold-tooled dark green morocco clam shell box in contemporary style.‎

‎Thirteen detailed Chinese watercolours of birds fruits flowers plants and fishes together with four portraits of Chinese people posing with a pipe lute flower and a handheld fan. The drawings in this album show the mixture of the Chinese and European styles that was popular in the market for export paintings in the first half of the 19th century: a combination of the Chinese approach to rendering with European aesthetics concerning light shadow and realism. As traditional in these paintings large areas of flat colour have been subtly shaded with very thin lines to draw the veins of the leaves fins of the fish and feathers of the birds. The production of these export paintings began earnestly in the 1820s and reached its height in the 1830s and 1840s especially after China's defeat in the First Opium War 1839-1842 opened the country to foreign trade. Photography was introduced in China in the 1840s and the market for export paintings declined after 1860.By the end of the 18th century Chinese painters in Hong Kong and Canton started producing paintings and drawings for European buyers. Although they were made for artistic and decorative purposes many European naturalists began collecting drawings to study Chinese plants and species. Most of the plants and animals would simply not survive the journey to Europe whereas dried specimens did not preserve the colour or shape of the flower. Most of the export paintings were ensembles of flowers and animals placed on a background. Imagination was more important than copying nature and the realistically painted flowers could have different colours or even be a composition of elements from different species. For that reason serious naturalists commissioned Chinese artists to paint according to the standards of European scientific illustration. With a few tiny spots and minor smudges but otherwise in very good condition. unknown‎

‎[CHINA MARINES] TREDER, John P.‎

‎Archive of Letters and Photographs of a U.S. Marine in China and the Philippines 1912-1913‎

‎Ripon CA: S.i. ca.1912-1913. A small archive of photographs and letters relating to the Marine Corps career 1909-1913 of John P. Treder a Polish-born resident of Ripon California. Includes 26 original vintage photographic prints a few commercial but most apparently vernacular of scenes in China and the Philippines; three pieces of printed ephemera and 9 ALS. A few photographs with marginal creasing or tears and light soil; letters folded in original mailing envelopes; overall Very Good. <br /> <br /> In February 1912 a small occupying force of U.S. Marines was sent to Peking to protect American interests during the brief but violent spate of riots that took place there following the Revolution of 1911 and the subsequent abdication of the Dowager Empress. John born Joannes P. Treder a Private in Company "E" of the U.S. 2nd Marines was part of this occupying force; this small but informative collection of commercial and vernacular photographs would have been collected by him during the brief interval of his Chinese service between February and April of 1912. The photographs include views of Peking; garrisons of both American and Chinese troops; and a few amateur snapshots of what we presume to be Treder in the company of friends including a fascinating series of four photographs of a bloody bare-knuckle fistfight between two soldiers. One commercially produced image depicts a pair of decapitated heads with the printed caption "A Pair Who Paid / Peking." Another - probably a vernacular image - shows an alleyway littered with dead bodies the victims lying face-down in the mud at least one with his hands tied behind his back. As the Marine presence in Peking was small about 200 troops and brief about eight weeks these photographs must be among the very few images of the Peking Riots extant in the West. This sets this collection apart from those assembled during the Boxer Rebellion of ten years earlier – a broader conflict which spawned a profusion of sensationalistic commercial images not dissimilar from the ones collected here and for which we mistook these images at first glance.<br /> <br /> Also present here are several photographic views of Manila and Subic Bay in the Philippines the usual home of the 2nd Marines; three pieces of printed ephemera; and a clutch of letters from various members of Treder's family addressed to him after his return stateside in 1913. In the year prior to his mustering out Treder was stationed aboard the Receiving Ship Saratoga at Mare Island in northern California; the family writes from their farm in Ripon situated about midway between Stockton and Modesto in the Central Valley. The letters touch frankly on family matters including the hardships of farm life; their continued attempts to sell out; and some unspecified financial setbacks suffered by Treder's father. According to genealogical websites the Treder family originally from north Poland emigrated to California from Wisconsin some time around the turn of the century. S.i. unknown‎

‎Mieville, China:‎

‎October: The Story of the Russian Revolution‎

‎-Verso 2017-. First edition 2017. viii369 pages. Illustrated. Cloth. Very good indeed in dustjacket. Award-winning writer China Miéville has long been inspired by the ideals of the Russian Revolution and here on the centenary of the revolution he provides his own distinctive take on its history. In February 1917 in the midst of bloody war Russia was still an autocratic monarchy: nine months later it became the first socialist state in world history. How did this unimaginable transformation take place How was a ravaged and backward country swept up in a desperately unpopular war rocked by not one but two revolutions This is the story of the extraordinary months between those upheavals in February and October of the forces and individuals who made 1917 so epochal a year of their intrigues negotiations conflicts and catastrophes. From familiar names like Lenin and Trotsky to their opponents Kornilov and Kerensky; from the byzantine squabbles of urban activists to the remotest villages of a sprawling empire; from the revolutionary railroad Sublime to the ciphers and static of coup by telegram; from grand sweep to forgotten detail. Historians have debated the revolution for a hundred years its portents and possibilities: the mass of literature can be daunting. But here is a book for those new to the events told not only in their historical import but in all their passion and drama and strangeness. Because as well as a political event of profound and ongoing consequence Miéville reveals the Russian Revolution as a breathtaking story.
