Features: The Chinese nation is one of the most passionate about collecting in the world, with renowned collectors throughout history. Since the reform and opening-up, a nationwide "collecting fever" has swept across China. However, collecting is an art, and even seasoned collectors can sometimes fall victim to scams. Nowadays, not only are fakes and counterfeits of calligraphy, paintings, and antiques rampant in the market, but even auctions are occasionally plagued by forgeries—truly a headache for collectors.
Given this, we have compiled and published this "Bao Fo Jiao Series," divided into two series: "Appreciating Chinese Calligraphy and Painting." This series emphasizes "practicality" and "actionability," aiming to provide tangible help to avid collectors. All the authors are not only research experts but also "collectors" and "enthusiasts," with practical experience in their respective fields. They have all "found treasures" in their areas of expertise, and some of the works featured in the books are even their own collections.
Mr. Zhu Yuping, the author of Appreciating Monochrome Porcelain, is a renowned domestic expert in ancient ceramic research and appreciation, with numerous influential works published in China and in Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. This book uses concise language to outline a complete history of Chinese monochrome porcelain, offering great help to collectors of monochrome porcelain.
In the past, teachers often criticized those who didn’t pay attention in class but crammed for exams at the last minute as "making a last-minute prayer to Buddha." But does "making a last-minute prayer to Buddha" actually work? It probably does, because most people have indeed passed exams this way. In collecting, the same may be true—but the key is to pray to the right "Buddha," not to cling to others. Our books are the "Bao Fo Jiao Series," and we are praying to the right "Buddha." As the saying goes, "If you don’t burn incense，.，。《》，。" Please believe that this is true. If you are passionate about collecting, why not buy a set of books and "make a last-minute prayer to Buddha" to see for yourself?
