Early Chinese paintings in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston : Hamilton Bell
A 1913 plate book by Hamilton Bell, published in New York by Art in America, reproducing early Chinese paintings from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, for an art-interested readership. The plates show ink landscapes with misty mountains and pavilions, a Buddhist paradise scene with rows of attendant figures, and a figure-in-garden hanging scroll, offering a designer examples of restrained tonal composition, layered atmospheric perspective, and dense symmetrical arrangement.
