Oriental Art
Far be it from me to pontificate upon a subject as specialised as the art
of the Far East. Suffice it to say that the people of these cultures were
wearing silk and eating their food off of china when we were wandering
around in furry outfits, brandishing clubs. This is a vast area of study
and all I can boast of is a true appreciation of its output. I shall therefore
simply list the images in an appropriate order. We shall only be looking
at Japanese and Chinese Art, since these are what I am most familiar with.
For those of you that want to find out more about the history of Chinese
and Japanese Art, I have compiled the texts at these links:

to the vastness of the subject matter I have divided this
