Art Speaks: Floral Motifs on Chinese Blue-and-White Porcelains

Curator of Asian art Philip Hu will discuss the delicate floral motifs on Chinese blue-and-white porcelain of the Yuan and Ming dynasties from the Museum’s collection. He will explore the methods used to create the objects, the utilization and relevance of the objects during that period, and the symbolic significance of the flowers and plants that adorn them. This program is a part of the Museum’s virtual Art in Bloom.
