  • Resumen

  • In this episode, we explore the profound influence of China on European culture, mainly through the lens of Chinoiserie, an artistic style that emerged from the fascination with Chinese goods and aesthetics. The discussion traces the historical journey of silk and other treasures from China to Europe via the Silk Road, highlighting key figures like Marco Polo and the role of trade companies such as the East India Company. It delves into how these interactions shaped European art, design, and cultural practices, culminating in the widespread adoption of Chinoiserie in architecture and decorative arts during the 18th century.
