Description

The exhibition presents works from many eras and broad geography, from China's Zhou dynasty, which ruled between the 11th and third centuries B.C.E., to the 1800s in Edo, Japan, and to 20th-century East Asia.

Featured are prints by 19th-century Japanese printmaker Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, from his most famous series, “New Forms of 36 Ghosts.”

Highlights include a bronze vessel, a Zhou dynasty food container used during ancient rituals, and a 17th-century hand scroll painting “Dream Journey,” by the Chinese painter and calligrapher Zha Shibiao.
