Download or read book Chinese Dragon Robes written by Valery M. Garrett and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1998 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robes with dragons first appeared in China during the Ming dynasty, and under the Qing dynasty they were worn on official occasions by the country's emperors and ruling elite. After the Qing fell in 1911, their wear became less frequent, but they are now avidly collected and displayed in museums and private collections throughout the world. This fully illustrated guide introduces Chinese dragon robes and their complex history, exploring several varieties of robes and their contemporary variations. It also addresses their construction techniques and, as guidance for dating the robes, provides detailed illustrations showing how the designs of dragons and surrounding symbols evolved through the centuries.

Book excerpt: Toward the end of nearly 2,000 years of imperial rule in China, the last dynasty, designated Qing, was led by the ethnically and culturally distinct Manchu people. The Manchu established a political organization using clothing fashioned after their nomadic roots to signify status and identity. Author John E. Vollmer details the characteristics of Manchu dynasty costume and its political, social, and cultural significance and influence in Chinese history. Included are descriptions of the various designs and symbology on the cloth, as well as diagrams illustrating garment-making technology and construction features, comprehensive notes, a bibliography, map, and chronology. A fascinating look at clothing and its strategic role in the politics of conquest, this book is an invaluable resource for scholars and collectors alike. Illustrated throughout, including private collection pieces photographed for the first time.
