Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The traditional villages are familiar primarily as a popular motif in Chinese literature. Now, for the first time, they are shown in their full astonishing variety. The range of colours and forms of vernacular dwellings in China can be traced back over hundreds of years, the astonishing variety bearing clear topological characteristics and determined by a broad spectrum of historical conditions. Styles and geometric shapes, ranging from the most elementary and primitive to the most lucious and colourful, as well as the architectural details, are all clearly illustrated. The decorative motifs employed are as varied and as fantastic as the landscape of China itself.
