Paintings of the China trade : the Sze Yuan Tang Collection of historic paintings /Patrick Connor. "The Sze Yuan Tang Collection of Historic Paintings ranks as one of the most important collections of China Trade paintings. Conner's publication places the rich imagery of the period in context with the culture and history creating a work that is far more than just a pretty presentation piece but a resource into the trade that drove the world into the modern era. There are 177 colour reproductions that are described by the author with careful insights that go beyond the title, artist's name and date. China Trade painting are known to be filled with symbolism, corporate colours and unique landscapes. Conner reveals more than just the paint on the surface. Paintings in the collection include works by William Alexander, George Chinnery and Lamqua."--Provided by the publisher. 2013. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 75.047(510)

The China Station, Royal Navy : a history as seen through the careers of the Commanders in Chief, 1864 "In the The Navy List for April 1864 the China Station was first shown as a separate Royal Navy Station. It remained as such until the outbreak of the Pacific War in December 1941 which was to signal the end of that era. In addition to a precis of the lives and naval careers of each of the Commanders in Chief of the China Station, this volume also gives relevant information outlining something of the concurrent internal affairs of China and Japan. Both are very different but sad tales, the former in decline towards the end of the Manchu Ch'ing dynasty and then into the chaotic 1920's and 1930's, and the latter increasingly adopting a militaristic attitude which was to result in their disaster of the Pacific War of 1941-1945. As a reminder of these days long gone are interwoven brief references to the British Consular Service. This is especially relevant for China, and for a shorter period for Japan during that era of extraterritoriality. Mention is also made of the British Colonial Service with whom, necessarily, the Navy worked very closely. In addition, being one important reason for it all, frequent references are made to a few British shipping and trading interests together with those of some other nations. All of these areas are linked together to give a definitive history of this very important Royal Navy Station."--Provided by the publisher. 2018 • FOLIO • 1 copy available. 623.81(42:51)
