Ming (culture, period, and styles) (Chinese dynastic styles and periods, Chinese (culture or style), ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to the culture, period, and styles associated with the Chinese dynasty dating from 1368 to 1644. It is characterized by being a period of stability, prosperity, and by a renewal of Chinese culture and national consciousness. Styles in this period developed largely from a system of court patronage of the arts that generally encouraged a high level of workmanship, but conservatism in design and technique. The major art produced during this period includes cloisonné, enamelware, bronzework, lacquerwork, furniture, and small ornamental carvings of jade, ivory, wood, and porcelain. In ceramics, earlier styles, including, blue-and-white wares, were refined in technique and decoration. In architecture, the earlier experiments of the Sung period were abandoned, in favor of more traditional designs, including the construction of the Forbidden City in Peking. In painting, schools of professional academics/artists and "literati" encouraged independent, personal styles.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar de periode en stijlen die behoren tot de Chinese dynastie tussen 1368 en 1644. De periode kenmerkt zich door stabiliteit, voorspoed en een opleving van de Chinese cultuur en een nationaal bewustzijn. De stijlen in deze periode ontwikkelden zich voornamelijk vanuit een systeem waarbij de kunst onder bescherming van het hof stond. Een hoge mate van vakmanschap werd aangemoedigd, maar qua ontwerp en technieken overheerste conservatisme. De belangrijkste kunst die tijdens deze periode werd vervaardigd was cloisonné, email, bronswerk, lakwerk, meubels en klein ornamenteel snijwerk van jade, ivoor, hout en porselein. In de keramiek werden eerdere stijlen, waaronder wit en blauw servies, verfijnd qua techniek en versiering. In de architectuur zijn de vroegere experimenten uit de Sung-periode achtergelaten en verruild voor traditionelere ontwerpen, zoals de bouw van de Verboden Stad in Peking. In de schilderkunst moedigden scholen van professionele academici/kunstenaars en de geletterde intelligentsia de ontwikkeling van onafhankelijke, persoonlijke stijlen aan.
