Illustrated catalogue of antique Chinese bronzes, porcelains, pottery ,tomb, jades and rare old Chinese paintings : belonging to the well-known connoisseur Dr. John C. Ferguson, counsellor of the Department of State, Pekin
This is a 1916 New York auction catalogue by the American Art Association, offering the collection of Peking connoisseur Dr. John C. Ferguson, with antique Chinese bronzes, porcelains, pottery, jades and paintings for collectors and dealers. The pictures are plain black-and-white photographs against pale grounds, showing a tripod bronze censer, a bronze ewer with a dragon-headed spout, a pierced openwork mirror stand and a lidded stoneware jar, which suggest sculptural silhouettes and ornamental fretwork for a designer.
