Now it holds an enviable position among similar collections in the world.In 1933 the Museum published a Portfolio of Chinese Paintings in the Museum (Han to Sung Periods). As its sequel, the Museum now offers to the public this Portfolio containing reproductions of paintings from the Yuan, Ming and Ch'ing dynasties, roughly from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century. Anyone who has delved into the field of Chinese paintings is aware that many works, especially after the Yuan period, bear inscriptions, usually of a poetic nature, appropriate to the subjects depicted.
