The visitor will observe a specimen of the latter in the collection. At nearly all the festivals observed by the Chinese a profusion of fireworks are exhibited. Their proficiency in the pyrotechnic art was lately displayed at Canton on the temporary cessation of hostilities. A representation was made of an immense vine arbour, which burned without consuming;--the trunk, branches, leaves, and fruit appeared in their natural colours, with, occasionally, butterflies apparently flitting among the branches. To this succeeded an immense number of rockets which formed themselves into innumerable stars, serpents, comets, and flying dragons. This magnificent display was followed by a grand discharge on all sides of a shower of fire, with which were intermixed variegated lanterns, some with sentences written on them, --together with figures of fruit, flowers, fans, &c. Then ascended a display of columns formed by rings of light, which lasted a few minutes and was unequalled in brilliancy by any previous device. At last the grand finale took place; the Chinese dragon of an immense size, appeared in all his majesty, surrounded by ten thousand winged reptiles, standards, and banners, when in an instant appeared upon the back of the monster, the figure of the Emperor, in blue lights. These successively changed to yellow, and lastly to the most intense white. A deafening report now rent the air, while a green veil arose over the Emperor, from the midst of which a volcano of rockets ascended. By [an ingenious contrivance, figures of boats, made of paper, arc capable of floating and moving upon the water, by means of..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ming porcelain is widely regarded among the world's finest cultural treasures. From ordinary household items patiently refined for imperial use, porcelain became a dynamic force in domestic consumption in China and a valuable commodity in export trade. In the modern era, it has reached unprecedented heights in art auctions and other avenues of global commerce. This book examines the impact of consumption on the evolution of porcelain and its transformation into a foreign cultural icon. The book begins with an examination of ways in which porcelain was appreciated in Ming China, followed by a discussion of encounters with Ming porcelain in several global regions including Europe and the Americas. The book also looks at the invention of the phrase and concept of 'the Ming vase' in English-speaking cultures and concludes with a history of the transformation of Ming porcelain into works of art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 1846, the Keying, a Chinese junk purchased by British investors, set sail from Hong Kong for London. Named after the Chinese Imperial Commissioner who had signed away Hong Kong to the British, manned by a Chinese and European crew, and carrying a travelling exhibition of Chinese items, theKeying had a troubled voyage. After quarrels on the way and a diversion to New York, culminating in a legal dispute over arrears of wages for Chinese members of the crew, it finally reached London in 1848, where it went on exhibition on the River Thames until 1853. It was then auctioned off, towed to Liverpool, and finally broken up. In this account of the ship, the crew and the voyage, Stephen Davies tells a story of missed opportunities, with an erratic course, overambitious aims, and achievements born of lucky breaks—a microcosm, in fact, of early Hong Kong and of the relations between China and the West.
