Description:
Manchu Qing Dynasty (c. 1644 – 1912) - The Qing rulers came from outside the Great Wall, in Northeast Asia. The Qing Dynasty was the most successful dynasty of conquest in Chinese history, and the empire over which it ruled and laid the territorial foundations of the modern Chinese Nation-state. The singular achievement of the Qing was to incorporate Inner Asian and East Asian subjects into a stable multi-ethnic empire. The PRC – People’s Republic of China , established in 1949, is smaller than the Qing empire at its peak by the subtraction of the independent Republic of Mongolia. Qianlong Period (c. 1736 – 1795) – In the eyes of many historians Qianlong reign represents not only the peak of the Qing dynasty, which ruled China from 1644 until 1911, but also the historical peak of the Dynastic form of rule. The Qianlong Emperor as Art Patron and the Formation of the collections of the Palace Museum, Beijing. The Qianlong Emperor personally amassed numerous bronzes, porcelains, jades, paintings and calligraphy as a form of cultural treasure. During his exceptionally long reign of sixty years, the Qianlong Emperor assumed roles in political, military and religious activities. The Qianlong Emperor was a passionate poet and essayist and was the last of the great imperial collectors and patrons in Chinese history. He was the ruler of five people during his reign: the Manchus, Mongols, Tibetans, Uighurs (Turkic- speaking Muslims) and Chinese. Each was separate, linked only by their relationship with the Emperor himself. Historically speaking, it was an unprecedented achievement, in which a single person, in a single era, embodied magisterial bureaucratic government, universal dominion inherited from the Mongolian great Khans, and the sagely Kinship of the Chinese community. The Qianlong reign also represented the high point in a long-term process of administrative consolidation that began in the Kanxi reign. The death of the Qianlong Emperor marked the end of the prosperity of the Qing. Thereafter imperial power decreased. Historical Value - Antiques bring the standards of haute couture into the home.
