Anyone with an interest in Chinese silks and their meanings should go through this, cover to cover. However, I would recommend reading it in tandem with newer works which may contest his interpretation of parts of silk history.|2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.|
This is a long-awaited reprint of the major work first published in 1952. China's Dragon Robes is a scholarly survey of the dragon-patterned robes worn by nobles and officials in China during the later dynasties. Intended as a source book on a major phase of Chinese costume, it is based on translations from many Chinese sources and on the author's personal studies of existing examples of dragon robes in the USA and in China.
