Content summary:
- Oriental Art: The book explores the most beautiful collection of Oriental art that has been collected in the West. Museum visitors can discover various beauties of Japan, China, India and Persia. From brightly colored pottery from the Chou Dynasty to superb works of Oriental art, art objects of varying value are found here. Examples include the delicately colored "Thirteen Emperors" by Yen Li-Pên, the sensibility of the imperial painter Hui-Tsung's "Parrot of Five Colors" and the majestic portrait of the god Dai-itoku Myo-ō, perhaps the most beautiful Buddhist painting to come out of Japan.

From the naive perfection of early Greek sculpture to the greatest painters of the nineteenth century, masterpieces are found here.

Que sommes-nous? Ou al-lons-nous?
