Art historian and artist Aldous Bertram has long been captivated by chinoiserie, Western art inspired by an imagined China. His book Dragons & Pagodas is organized by themes like porcelain, color, flora, fauna, and architecture. Each chapter brims with images from grand European palaces to modern rooms adorned in floral wallpaper. Complete with Bertram’s own watercolors and collages, the book is an irresistible example of chinoiserie itself.
