- This book is the first truly interdisciplinary study of Korean art and politics. It points to the realities of late Chosŏn dynasty (1700-1850) that its visual art seemed to hide and deny. The book consists of 120,000 words and 110 illustrations. It is the outcome of seven years of research at various archives and museums in Europe, North America, and East Asia. The author studied a wide range of historical records written in Classical Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. The book received the Charles Rufus Morey Book Award, the most prestigious book award in field of art history.
