Painting Architecture: Jiehua in Yuan China, 1271–1368

Synopsis:"Focusing on the development of jiehua in the fourteenth century when the Mongols ruled China, Yu’s book raises issues beyond the field of painting history, including architectural history, aesthetics, and social-historical studies. It is a long-awaited contribution to a rarely studied painting genre and an admirable accomplishment of multidisciplinary research on Chinese art."—Qianshen Bai, associate professor emeritus, Boston University
