A Play on Words - Guisseppi Castiglione Italian Jesuit who in the 1700s revolutionized Chinese Art, had the Chinese Name Lang Shi Ning -- the bio fiction novelist who had lived and written other books on Chinese art and culture, had planned to write a bio-fic on Guiseppe Castiglione -- when it turns out Dianna Gore and David Su Liqun just published their own [excellent] book Vermilion ink. Hence the researchers dropped the project for themselves and offer this brand new art book to Chairish readers.

Shen bi dan qing : Lang Shining lai Hua san bai nian te zhan = Portrayals from a brush divine : a special exhibition on the tricentennial of Giuseppe Castiglione's arrival in China
Giuseppe Castiglione (1688-1766), also known by his Chinese name Lang Shining, is one of the few Westerners to have been lavished with praise and to have left a glowing reputation in the archives of imperial China and the annals of Chinese history. A native of Milan in Italy, he joined the Society of Jesus in Genoa and went to Coimbra, Portugal before heading to China. While in Portugal, he spent several years doing wall paintings for the church of Saint Francis Borgia at the Jesuit college there. This exhibition catalogue is an attempt to survey Castiglione's paintings during each period of his life. This catalogue also includes 5 essays: The Qing Patronage of Milanese Art: A Reconsideration on Materiality and Western Art History by Marco Musillo / Bring Art to Life: Giuseppe Castiglione and Scenic Illusion Painting by Kristina Kleutghen / A Missionary for Art: Giuseppe Castiglione's Activities and Artistic Achievements at the Qing Court by Lina Lin / The Transformation of Giuseppe Castiglione's Style and Operations of the Painting Academy in the Yongzheng Reign by Yun-ru Chen / Beyond Paper and Silk: The Layers of Giuseppe Castiglione's Influence on the Decoration of Falangcai Painted Porcelains at the Qianlong Court by Pei-chin Yu.00Exhibition: Opera House of Santa Croce, Florence, Italy (31.10.2015-31.01.2016)
About this product
Product Information
During Qing dynasty China, Italian artists were hired through Jesuit missionaries by the imperial workshops in Beijing. In The Shining Inheritance: Italian Painters at the Qing Court, 1699-1812 , Marco Musillo considers the professional adaptations and pictorial modifications to Chinese traditions that allowed three of these Italian painters -- Giovanni Gherardini (1655- ca. 1729), Giuseppe Castiglione (1688-1766), and Giuseppe Panzi (1734-1812) -- to work within the Chinese cultural sphere from 1699, when Gherardini arrived in China, to 1812, the year of Panzi's death. Musillo focuses especially on the long career and influence of Castiglione (whose Chinese name was Lang Shining), who worked in Beijing for more than fifty years. Serving three Qing emperors, he was actively engaged in the pictorial discussions at court. The Shining Inheritance perceptively explores how each painter's level of professional artistic training affected his understanding, selection, and translation of the Chinese pictorial traditions. Musillo further demonstrates how this East-West artistic exchange challenged the dogma of European universality through a professional dialogue that became part of established workshop routines. The cultural elements, procedures, and artistic languages of both China and Italy were strategically played against each other in negotiating the successes and failures of the Italian painters in Beijing. Musillo's subtle analysis offers a compelling methodological model for an increasingly global field of art history.
