Needs information on Chinese and Tibetan Art / Obkects

The Met has a special exhibition running October 12 - January 23 - great stuff with some of the exhibition online - you should be able to find images, descriptions and in some cases analysis of almost everything you listed  - http://www.metmuseum.org/home.asp -  Don't limit yourself to the exhibition - there are great photos and information through the whole site - Parts of their permanent Asia collection are here: http://www.metmuseum.org/Works_of_Art/viewHigh.asp?dep=6& ;viewmode=0   Looks like they'll have almost everything that you'll need. The Metropolitan Museum's article descriptions and analysis are also very good.

The vatican collection has photos of great objects (see below) - but you'll need to do more research on those.

The MFA in Boston also has an excellent standing collection:
