There has long been animosity there and this, I think, partly explains this fact.

I myself believe that there are only three reasons for collecting Asian art and these are: 1. beauty and 2. the appearance of the artistic elements which give us an idea of time and circumstances and 3. when possessing something of ages ago you must realise that it is your direct connection of times pas by.
