Clockmaking in China
under the Kangxi
and Qianlong Emperors
The effect of Imperial patronage on the decorative arts of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911) was strongest during the Kangxi (1662-1722) and Qianlong (1735-1795) periods. These emperors, well known for their interest in the arts and the sciences, accumulated vast collections of decorative art objects in both Chinese and Western style, many of which were made through imperial command in workshops established within the Forbidden City expressly to meet this demand.

Henry W. Wells : William Carlos Williams's poetry is based on irony, paradox and contradiction. He became a violent partisan of the moral and aesthetic standards of the West and scarcely less in accord with those of the East. With the Chinese he cultivates violent transitions. Connectives are flagrantly omitted, stimulating imagination, prohibiting redundancy. Like the Chinese poets when seen through Western eyes, Williams tolerates no stale, flat, conventional word order. Like so many of his poems as well as poems by Du Fu and Li Bo, the subject is a landscape with a few buildings as supplementary features. The major theme is certainly the d
