Black Tigers

A Grammar of Chinese Rubbings

New Paperback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Ink rubbings of culturally valuable material have been central to Chinese culture since at least the 6th century and can be all that remains of the original work. This first comprehensive study of them in English explores their development, materials and techniques and demonstrates not only their importance to history, art and archaeology but their position as works of art in their own right.
