A catalogue of old Chinese paintings and drawings : together with a complete collection of books on Chinese art
A 1913 London sales catalogue issued by the Oriental booksellers Probsthain & Co., listing old Chinese paintings and drawings alongside their stock of books on Chinese art, aimed at collectors and dealers. The plates are dark halftone reproductions of hanging scrolls and panels — lotus ponds with birds, seated Buddhist figures on rocks, pine and waterfall landscapes, terraced garden pavilions — with silk weave, stains and crackle clearly visible.
