One lion's paw rests upon a decorated ball symbolizing power, while the other lion cradles a cub. Traditionally believed to possess attributes of strength and protection, statues such as these once stood guard outside imperial buildings, temples, and wealthy homes in China. Now, centuries later, they guard this incredible permanent exhibition. China's long history is one of the richest and most complex in the known world, and the Cyrus Tang Hall of China offers visitors a wonderful, comprehensive survey of it through some 350 artifacts on display, spanning from the Paleolithic period to present day. Now, with China: Visions through the Ages, anyone can experience the marvels of this exhibition through the book's beautifully designed and detailed pages. Readers will gain deeper insight into The Field Museum's important East Asian collections, the exhibition development process, and research on key aspects of China's fascinating history. 000812904 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000812904 61020 $$aField Museum of Natural History$$xArt collections. 000812904 651_0 $$aChina$$xAntiquities. 000812904 7001_ $$aBekken, Deborah A.,$$eeditor. 000812904 7001_ $$aNiziolek, Lisa C.,$$eeditor. 000812904 7001_ $$aFeinman, Gary M.,$$eeditor. 000812904 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tChina: visions through the ages.$$dChicago : The University of Chicago Press, 2018$$z9780226385372$$w(DLC) 2016045897 000812904 852__ $$bacq 000812904 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000812904 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4914478$$zOnline Access 000812904 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:812904$$pGLOBAL_SET 000812904 980__ $$aEBOOK 000812904 980__ $$aBIB 000812904 982__ $$aEbook 000812904 983__ $$aOnline
