The subject is a 15.5-foot handscroll painted by Li Kung-lin, the preeminent figure painter of 11th-century China, illustrating a work that dates to between 350 and 200 B.C.--a dialog between Confucius and a disciple on the meaning and application of filial piety in the affairs of the individual and of the state. Barnhart's (art history, Yale) elucidation is accompanied by contributed chapters on the calligraphy of the work and on the conservation and remounting of the scroll. Generously illustrated. 9.25x12.25" Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
