解説

Imagine a Chinese phoenix shimmering on a 14th-century silk chasuble or a 15th-century Italian painting. How did this exotic motif travel so far? This book traces the journey of fenghuang-themed silks along the Silk Road, their encounter with the Christian phoenix, and their use in Catholic liturgical vestments and depiction in religious painting. You discover how luxury textiles shaped sacred imagery and how a single motif was reinterpreted across cultures. Featuring images of rarely shown religious paintings and textiles, this study opens a vivid window onto cultural-religious exchange, artistic adaptation, and the dynamics of the medieval luxury market, offering fresh insights into East-West dialogue.
