Reflections of the Floating World: A Biography Li Tang, Liu Songnian, Ma Yuan, and Xia Gui/浮世绘影：李唐

Liu Songnian, Li Tang, Ma Yuan, and Xia Gui are collectively known as the "Four Masters of the Southern Song Dynasty." This book endeavors to compile new historical materials on these artists beyond the scope of existing art historical and theoretical works, and arranges key biographical materials in a systematic manner, aiming to provide a relatively complete collection of historical sources for the convenience of future researchers. The book also undertakes an analysis and exploration of the natural, social, and temporal environments in which these four painters lived, thereby supplementing the gaps in art historical records while also aspiring to offer broader avenues of inquiry and contextual reference for the study of art history.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿"¿¿¿¿".¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿,¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿,¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿,¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿,¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿,¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿.
