art

the biggest thing in art is white and blue porcelain paint and was very valuable.


During the Yuan Dynasty, the porcelain industry continued its rapid development. Blue and white porcelain of the Tang and Song dynasties, continued to be used with further development. The blue and white porcelain was painted with a strong blue under the transparent glaze. This resulted in the color being protected by the layer of hard glaze, enabling it to be lasting and well preserved.


Jingdezhen Kilns made technical breakthroughs in the material combination and the firing temperature which enabled them to produce of large porcelain wares. During the Yuan Dynasty, under glaze-blue and the under glaze-red was used for decoration. Before the Yuan Dynasty there was very little color choice. Great advances were made in the production of colored glaze during this Dynasty.
