Features: From the first invention of lacquerware in China to the Han Dynasty, it has undergone more than five thousand years of significant development. By the Han Dynasty, bronze ware had declined, and porcelain had not yet entered the historical stage. On the foundation of the Han Dynasty's prosperous national strength, lacquerware stood out, propelling the Han lacquer craft to the peak of Chinese lacquerware development, shining like the midday sun, brilliant and glorious! This volume features two hundred and ninety exquisite Han Dynasty lacquerware treasures selected from various cultural relic collection units across the country, accompanied by three hundred and thirty-two color illustrations. At the beginning of the volume is a comprehensive discussion on Han lacquer art and craft, followed by detailed illustrations and descriptions of the lacquerware. This volume is currently the most comprehensive and systematic exquisite atlas of Han Dynasty lacquerware in China and abroad.
