China is one of the countries where mask has been used most widely and for the longest period of time. There are many records about masks in ancient classics; the images of masks are depicted in a lot of fine arts works; masks are not rare in archaeological findings; countless masks have been preserved in the folk. Chinese masks display features of a big variety, vivid designs, unique shapes and distinctive ethnicity, compared with those of other countries and ethnicities. It is not an exaggeration that Chinese masks should occupy a prominent position in the global family of masks. This book, though academic, is accessible to the general public having many illustrations. There are tens of precious color pictures and 288 illustrations in the body writing. That way readers can have vivid connections with related fields or topics while reading. This book correctly and clearly depicts the silhouette of the development of Chinese masks and has high academic and documentary values.
