Essential for Calligraphy Students
As a student of calligraphy, this book has become my primary reference. The detailed annotations regarding the artists and the historical context of each seal are invaluable for my studies.

Excellent Content, Heavy Volume
The selection of leisure seals from various dynasties is comprehensive and well-curated. My only minor complaint is that the book is quite heavy, making it difficult to hold while reading for long periods.

Fascinating Glimpse into History
I bought this as a gift for a friend who loves Asian art, but I ended up browsing through it myself. The variety of styles from different dynasties is fascinating. Would give 5 stars if there was more English translation.

Beautiful Coffee Table Book
Even though I cannot read Chinese fluently, the visual beauty of these seals is stunning. The layout is elegant, and the paper quality is thick and luxurious. A wonderful addition to my art library.
Q: Does this book contain English translations for the seal inscriptions?
A: The book primarily features the original seal scripts and Chinese commentary. However, it includes an English introduction and brief captions for major sections to assist international readers.
Q: Is this book suitable for beginners in calligraphy?
A: While it is an advanced collection, beginners can certainly appreciate the visual aesthetics. However, some prior knowledge of Chinese art history will help in fully understanding the contextual notes.
Q: Is the paper glossy or matte?
A: The book uses high-quality matte coated paper to reduce glare and better showcase the intricate details of the ink rubbings without reflection.
Q: Are the seals shown in their actual size or scaled?
A: Most seals are reproduced at their actual size to allow artists to study the stroke width accurately, though a few very large monumental seals are slightly scaled down to fit the page.
Q: Does this cover seals from the Qing Dynasty specifically?
A: Yes, the anthology covers a wide range of dynasties including the Ming and Qing dynasties, with a significant portion dedicated to the exquisite leisure seals of famous Qing artists.
