This first extended history of the picture-scroll explores its extraordinary longevity, and its adaptability to social, political and technological change. The book describes what the picture-scroll demands of a viewer, how China's artists grappled with its cultural power, and how collectors and connoisseurs have left their marks on scrolls for later generations to judge. The return to mass appeal of scrolling -- a media technology that seemed long outdated yet persists in our digital age -- provides urgent and fascinating context to this book. -- from book jacket. 650 0 $a Scrolls, Chinese. 650 0 $a Painting, Chinese. 650 6 $a Rouleaux chinois. 650 6 $a Peinture chinoise. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240517012404.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DF53E994141211EF8F56A7732FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
