Chinese water-ink painting, brighter Western watercolors and delicate porcelain are curiously integrated in the works of American artist Philip Read, making him a focus of attention at a ceramics fair in China's porcelain capital of Jingdezhen.
About 20 years ago, a trip to Jingdezhen introduced Read to the world of ceramics. From that point on, he started to get more and more involved in ceramics.

【講解】
文中的porcelain capital就是“瓷都”的意思。其中capital用作可數(shù)名詞時,可解釋為“首都”,如:Beijing is the capital of China.(北京是中國的首都。)也可解釋為“大寫字母”,如:Write your name and address in capitals.(你的名字和地址都需要大寫。)capital用作不可數(shù)名詞時,解釋為“資金”,如:raise capital(籌集資金)。
此外,文中的delicate解釋為“精美的;微妙的”,又如delicate structure,意為“精巧的結(jié)構(gòu)”。
