Collected Illustrations of the Three Realms: Clothing
三才圖會(六十二)
First Complete Translation
Only partial translations or excerpts exist. This is the first complete English translation.
The 'Sancai Tuhui' (1609) is a massive Ming Dynasty encyclopedia. While its 'Clothing' (Yifu) section is a primary source for Chinese material culture and has been frequently cited, illustrated, and partially translated in academic studies (such as those by Zujie Yuan or Anna Boroffka found in search results), no record of a complete, standalone English translation of this specific section exists in major catalogs. This work represents the first complete English translation of the 'Clothing' chapters.
