Using a technique introduced by European missionaries in the late 17th century, Chinese artisans made it their own. From Canton (Guangzhou), a city that acted as the Qing empire’s window to the West throughout the 18th and into the mid-19th century, enamelled wares reached courts, private collections and wider commerce across the globe.Following the talk, Joyce will be joined by Dr James Lin (Senior Curator, Chinese Art, Fitzwilliam Museum, University of Cambridge) and Dr Henning von Mirbach (Assistant Professor of Early Modern Chinese Art, University of Cambridge) for a panel discussion moderated by Dame Jessica Rawson (University of Oxford).The event marks the opening of the Fitzwilliam Museum’s display “An Enamel Revolution: China and the World” (20 October 2026 – 21 February 2027), a partnership with the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The partnership is generously supported by Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau, Hong Kong.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/f2de05e0-a8c0-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1200-h317-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/f3119900-a8c0-11f1-a4a1-eb59356bc08b-rimg-w1200-h507-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg
