Figurative Works of Chen Hongshou (1599-1652) - Bentley, Tamara Heimarck

Chen Hongshou (1599-1652) was as an artist and scholar of the Ming period. Considering Chen's paintings and prints alongside Chen's romance drama commentaries and prefaces and his collected writings (particularly poetry), this title focuses not only on Chen, but also on an important cultural moment in the first half of the seventeenth century.
