Museum Boardroom
Museum docent Elain Pierce explores the messages conveyed by Chinese ceramics and why these beautiful objects have long been coveted by collectors. The rise and fall of empires, the tastes of connoisseur emperors, and the international exchange of goods and ideas are among the forces that have shaped these items, from Neolithic earthenware to Qing dynasty porcelains.
