Taiwan: National Palace Museum 國立故宫博物院印行, 1974. Very Good. Taiwan: National Palace Museum, 1974. First Edition. Folio (38x27x1cm; in chemise of 29x27.5x1.5cm); [iii] + 41pp, each page a double-spread. Entirely in Chinese. Traditional Chinese fukurotoji stab-binding, with the bound spine on the right edge and the pages folded at the outer edge. Wraps of limp textured teal paper with rice paper label. Housed in a light honey yellow chemise, with paste-on label. Chemise shows some shelfwear, with sunning in upper back left corner, and small scuffs-but it has done its job, as the volume itself is impeccable. Emperor Huizong (1082-1135) was the father of Emperor Gaozong (1107-1187), a dynasty of rulers by habit and calligraphers by talent. This volume reproduces, in 41 double-spreads, exemplary details of the celebrated poems written out in their hands.
