This course introduces Chinese painting from the earliest traces of ink on silk to the present. Looking at figure, Buddhist, and landscape painting, we will trace the different purposes paintings have served; from spiritual tools to escapes for the mind to political protests. We will pay special attention to the materials, techniques, and formats used by Chinese painters. While studying the canonical works of Chinese painting, we will also include works by often-ignored groups such as women painters and craftsmen who reproduced painting in media such as woodblock print, textiles, and even porcelain.

Introduction to the role of women as both creators and sponsors of works of art. Not only were women the ambivalent object of portrayal from Eve to the Virgin, but also a force behind the pen and parchment. In monastic settings, women copied and illuminated manuscripts, and when promoted to abbess, could become as powerful as Hildegard of Bingen. Queens and aristocratic women were avid patrons in the later Medieval period. By the Renaissance and Baroque periods, we encounter a host of painters and sculptors whose names have finally joined the ranks of the "old masters."
