内容提要：这部精美的学术图录中收录了波士顿艺术博物馆（MFA, Boston）中珍藏的古代中国画杰作。书中涵盖了广阔的中国艺术史图景，对山水、花鸟和佛教绘画皆有深入的探讨，时间跨越公元一世纪至元代间的千年。本书亦讨论了中国画与其他艺术形式的关系，其中尤以书法为重。波士顿艺术博物馆中国艺术策展人吴同（Wu Tung）为图录撰写了序言，回到社会与历史的原境中与读者一同解读这些中国艺术史上的杰作。

These masterpieces of Chinese painting from the past millennium--culled from the extensive collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston--are lucidly presented in this scholarly and beautifully illustrated catalogue. The pieces discussed range from historical allegories from the first century A.D., to breathtaking twelfth century landscapes, to precisely observed animal scenes from the era of the Yuan Dynasty--the finest examples of the world's oldest continuing painting tradition. Also considered are the relationships between Chinese painting and other forms of art, particularly calligraphy, which was of course central to traditional Chinese culture. An informed and comprehensive introduction by scholar Wu Tung sets the works in their historical and social contexts.
