Extraordinaire destin que celui du jésuite milanais Giuseppe Castiglione (1688-1766).
Peintre de formation, volontaire pour la Chine, Castiglione arrive à Pékin en 1715, à 27 ans. Il ne rentrera jamais en Europe, mais servira, pendant plus de cinquante ans et sous le nom chinois de Lang Shining, trois empereurs successifs. Il mit au point, en tant que peintre, décorateur et architecte à leur cour, un compromis étonnant entre traditions chinoise et européenne. Ce livre retrace, à partir des découvertes et des études récentes, le parcours et l'apport artistique de celui que l'on considère comme l'un des plus grands créateurs à la cour des empereurs mandchous.

Michèle Pirazzoli-t'Serstevens est directeur d'études à l'Ecole pratique des hautes études où elle a enseigné l'art et l'archéologie de la Chine. Elle a été auparavant, pendant près de vingt ans, conservateur au musée Guimet. C'est dans ce cadre qu'elle a entrepris des recherches sur Guiseppe Castiglione. Par ailleurs, elle a dirigé, à partir de 1983, une équipe française travaillant sur les Palais européens commandés par l'empereur Qianlong et dont Castiglione fut l'un des deux maîtres d'oeuvre. Les nombreux articles que l'auteur a consacrés à Castiglione l'ont établie comme l'un des meilleurs spécialistes de l'artiste italien.

"The influx of missionaries to China began after the European Reformation, with Macau serving as an initial stopover point.....during the late Ming and early Qing...missionaries brought with them Western science, culture and art. In 1715 (54th year of Kangxi's reign) Giuseppe Castiglione worked in the imperial palace .... and won the adminration of Kangxi, Yongzhen and Qianlong. Jean-Denis Attiret, Ignaz Sichelbarth, Louis de Poirot, Giuseppe Panzi and others followed, serving as missionary painters in the Qing imperial court. The integration of Western techniques of chiaroscuro and perspective, along with the characteristics of Chinese traditional painting, nurtured a new school of painting in China....a tremendous influence on Chinese painters. The Provisional Municipal Council of Macau....with the Palace Museum exhibition.... coincides with the second anniversary of the return of sovereignty of Macau to China." --prefatory note.
