Selections from Oriental objects of art collected by Worcester Reed Warner, most of which have been presented to the Cleveland Museum of Art

Warner, Worcester Reed, 1846-1929, Cleveland Museum of Art · 1921 · Tarrytown, N.Y. · 22 pictures

A 1921 photographic catalogue of Asian art objects collected by Worcester Reed Warner and largely given to the Cleveland Museum of Art, published in Tarrytown, New York, for collectors and museum audiences. Its plates are sober studio photographs of single vessels and small groups against plain grounds, showing bronze ritual vessel forms, a Chinese pottery ewer, jade and carved hardstone pieces, and a glazed ceramic jar, useful to designers for studying vessel silhouettes, carved surface patterns, and museum-style object photography.
