Worshiping the Ancestors Chinese Commemorative Portraits
Author: Jan Stuart, Evelyn Sakakida Rawski
Despite their compelling presence and often exquisite quality, Chinese ancestor portraits have never been studied as a genre. This richly illustrated book is the first to explore in depth the artistic, historical, and religious significance of these remarkable paintings and to place them with other types of commemorative portraiture.
