CHINA STEEL ENGRAVINGS
Part 32 individually issued of "The Chinese Empire Historical and Descriptive." The Stocking Maker / Policeman and Prisoner / Street Punishments / Examination of a Prisoner.
New York.: London Printing and Publishing Company. No date. Ca. 1850. FOUR STEEL ENGRAVINGS with tissue guards 8 pages of text 12 x 9 1/4 inches pictorial paper wrappers. Light scattered foxing and dampstaining offsetting onto one plate other plates in very good condition head and tail of spine is split. This is a single semi-monthly part of what appears to be the American edition of "China in a Series of Views Displaying the Scenery Architecture and Social Habits of that Ancient Empire." designed to de-mystify the great empire of China. It contains 4 steel engravings and several unrelated subject-wise pages of text and is complete as issued. The engravings are: The Stocking Maker / Policeman and Prisoner / Street Punishments / Examination of a Prisoner. Subscription publication was common during the 19th century making publications more affordable to the rapidly expanding middle class market and this method where illustrations and text are unrelated was used to deter subscribers from quitting partway through their subscription. The advertisement on the back cover gives the title "The Chinese Empire: A Comprehensive History of the Manners Customs Industries and Arts of the Chinese. by Rev. G.N. Wright. Magnificently Illustrated with Numerous Steel Engravings from Sketches taken on the Spot. by T. Allom Esq." The title "The Chinese Empire Historical and Descriptive" appears on the title page included with part 38 of the series. . London Printing and Publishing Company. unknown

GAO LAN ZIAN XU ZHI GAO LAN COUNTY CHRONICLE
Gan Su Province China: Gao Lan Shu Yuan Gao Lan Academy 1847. 12 volumes in total bound in 4 fascicles. Complete. with Illustrations including landscape scenes building elevations plans etc. Double leaves 22.5x15.3 cm. 19x6". stitch bound within original wrappers with printed paper labels housed in cloth chemise closed with traditional Chinese toggles and with printed paper label. Well preserved the wrappers with some wear and a bit of loss and minor staining contents a touch mellowed a few minor repairs. The chemise is a bit worn and the toggle clasps are lacking but all in all this is an excellent complete set of a very scarce item. <br> SCARCE COMPLETE 19TH CENTURY GAO LAN COUNTY CHRONICLE.<br> An illustrated account of the local history of a county of the Central Asian province of Gan Su which borders Tibet Mongolia Sichuan and Xinjiang and through which the Silk Road passed and through which the famous missionary-traveler Father Evariste Regis Huc was travelling in the 1840s. Due to its location this area was a key territory during the 'Great Game' which was played out between the major powers in the area during the nineteenth century.<br> Located in the northwest of the country which is now the People's Republic of China Gan Su lies between the Tibetan and Huangtu plateaus. The Yellow River passes through the southern part of the province. In imperial times Gan Su was an important strategic outpost and communications link for the Chinese empire as the Hexi corridor runs along the "neck" of the province. The Han Dynasty extended the Great Wall across this corridor.<br> But it was due to its situation along the Silk Road that Gan Su became an economically important province and a cultural transmission path as well. Temples and Buddhist grottoes such as those at Mogao Caves and Maijishan Caves contain artistically and historically revealing murals. Gao Lan Shu Yuan (Gao Lan Academy) hardcover

New York: Oxford University Press 1986. Hardback. First Edition. Small tear to top edge of front D/J. It is easy to be overawed by the scale of China: the distances its huge population the length of its recorded history the diversity of its people and their cultures. Guidebooks become unmanageably large or uselessly superficial while picture books either lack any coherent theme or are too focused to encapsulate the experience of China. This book describes the hundred most important monuments of China. They have been selected so as to show the development of Chinese art and architecture over the millennia and to do so in a way which also reflects both - indigenous and imported - and the immense geographical scope of Chinese civilization. Gardens and temples mausolea and palaces caves and graves bridges and pagodas - this book provides a spectacular survey equally suitable for the real visitor or the armchair traveller. Illustrated. 313 pp. We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts Theology History Politics Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions Reference books and all types of Academic Literature. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" Tall Octavo. Hardback. Oxford University Press Hardcover
