These detailed blue and white porcelain statuettes represent three generations of the most popular emperors in Chinese history. The oldest of the three Qing (1644-1912) emperors, Kangxi (reigning 1662-1722), reestablished peace by adopting much of the Ming bureaucratic structure and espousing Confucian ideals of government, ushering in an era of reconstruction. His son Yongzheng (reigning 1723-35) completed the institutional restructuring of the Qing state, but it was under Kangxi's grandson, Qianlong (reigning 1736-95), that the empire reached the height of its power.
