EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite tablescreen, dating between 1127 and 1279, showcases the fusion of art and functionality during the Song Dynasty in China. The screen, created anonymously (Anon), is a masterpiece of black lacquer on a wood core, intricately inlaid with mother of pearl. The central image is a calligraphy of Sima Guang's (1019-1086) Family Instructions, also known as "Junshi." Sima Guang was a renowned historian and politician during the Northern Song Dynasty. The Family Instructions were a set of moral and ethical guidelines for the education and behavior of young scholars. The calligraphy on this tablescreen is a testament to the importance of literacy and learning during the Song Dynasty. The close-up view reveals the meticulous detail and precision of the hand-carved characters, each one carefully crafted to capture the essence of Sima Guang's teachings. The black color of the lacquer and mother of pearl inlay creates a striking contrast, adding to the screen's visual appeal. The use of black lacquer was a popular technique during the Song Dynasty, and this tablescreen is a prime example of the artistry and craftsmanship that flourished during this period. This tablescreen is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian art or Chinese heritage. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a treasured object, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of China during the Song Dynasty. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this anonymous masterpiece in its collection, where it can be admired by visitors from around the world.
