Description
Summary:Published in conjunction with a December 1999 symposium held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and an exhibition, "The Artist as Collector: Masterpieces of Chinese Painting from the C.C. Wang Family Collection." Twelve contributions give dissenting opinions regarding a book recently published by The Museum titled , which seeks to attribute the painting called "Riverbank" to the 10th-century landscape master Dong Yuan an attribution that would call for the rewriting of early Chinese painting history. This volume contains 239 b&w illustrations to support the contributors' efforts to explain their opinions. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
