    Nancy LinARTICLEArchives of Asian Art2025

    In this paper I investigate why Mei Lanfang (1894–1961), the male performer of female characters in Peking opera, and images of modern Chinese beauties were featured in the prolific career of the neo-traditional Korean painter Kim Eunho (1892–1979) both during the colonial period in the 1920s and 1930s and in the postwar period in the 1960s and 1970s.
