書籍介紹
本書是國立故宮博物院最新出版的簡介，距離上次簡介出版已經超過十年，除進行內容修訂與更新外，希望能展開更全面的視野。或許有人會問，當故宮及其典藏的相關資訊，都可以快速地在故宮的官網上取得時，這本簡介還能提供甚麼功用呢?
實際上，若是您從未造訪過故宮，將從中獲益良多。因為除非您只為了特定展覽而來，否則很容易迷失在故宮的大量展品中，無所適從。藉由這本簡介，讓您可以在很短的時間內，對故宮的概況有個很好的認識，不必擔心會錯過任何主要的藏品。另一方面，若是您來過故宮無數次，甚至自認對故宮所有角落與縫隙都瞭若指掌，您也可以細細玩味書中所精選的典藏，是否與您的看法不同？您或許能從我們提供的文物局部放大圖，發現一些初次的驚喜，或是品味想再次觀賞的細節，從中找出不同的趣味。

This book is the new official guide to the National Palace Museum (NPM), more than a decade since the last guidebook was published. In addition to offering a full revision and updates to the major artworks in the NPM's collection, this text will also help readers explore new horizons of the museum. First-timers to the NPM will benefit most from this book, and conceivably receive a comprehensive overview of the whole museum. Readers who have been to the museum many times will enjoy comparing the artworks selected by the NPM's departmental curators with their own preferences. Perusing the pages of this text can lead to finding new curiosities, or rediscovering old favorites.
This book is organized as follows: The first part briefs the history of the NPM, including the journey of the collection to Taiwan. It also traces the expansion of the museum's buildings and sites, in line with the NPM's continued efforts to evolve from imperial tradition into a modern, world-class museum. The second part of the book showcases 86 artworks in the NPM's collection, including the museum's most beloved pieces, rarely seen treasures, and exciting new acquisitions. The selected works in this text are just several of the nearly 700,000 items in the NPM's collection, including ceramics, bronzes, jades, curios, paintings, calligraphy, rare books, archival materials, maps, textiles, and religious artworks. Shifting exhibit themes not only reflect a global perspective and increased diversity, but also offer intriguing insight into the NPM's considerations when building and shaping its unique collection.
In addition to managing its collections and exhibitions, the NPM's recent endeavors in conservation, education, cultural creativity, research, and development are also presented in the third part of this book. It is the NPM's intention to invite diverse audiences to appreciate the beauty of the museum's collections, from multiple perspectives. As one of the world's most famous museums, the NPM has been a top destination for travelers ever since it first opened to the public in 1965. Millions of domestic and international visitors will find useful information on the NPM and nearby scenery at the end of this book, offering an indispensable look at both the NPM's classically reimagined Northern Branch on a Taipei hillside and the dazzling Southern Branch in Chiayi. Whether a regular visitor or someone who hasn't yet made the trip, this richly illustrated and beautifully designed text is invaluable.
