No other civilization in the pre-modern world was more obsessed with creating underground burial structures than the Chinese. This book argues that to achieve a genuine understanding of Chinese tombs we need to reconsider a host of art-historical concepts, including visuality, viewership, space, formal analysis, function and context.
