Discover 'The Painting Master’s Shame', a groundbreaking exploration of the Xuanhe Catalogue of Paintings that challenges traditional narratives surrounding its authorship. This captivating book, written by renowned scholar Amy McNair, presents a fresh perspective by arguing that Liang Shicheng, a notable eunuch official, played a vital role in its compilation rather than the Northern Song emperor Huizong. McNair’s detailed analysis takes you through the 1120 era, shedding light on the intricate dynamics of political struggles, particularly during the New Policies period, and the emergence of the 'scholar amateur' ideal in artistic expression.Through her meticulous translation and critical examination, McNair articulates the catalogue's relevance in the history of Chinese painting criticism and scholarship. The narrative uncovers the complex motivations and unique opportunities afforded to eunuchs during this transformative period, revealing how they wielded cultural authority to enhance their status. The book's critical examination of the 'Painting Master' title serves as a poignant reflection on honor, status, and artistic identity in ancient China.
Perfect for art historians, collectors, and enthusiasts, 'The Painting Master’s Shame’ is an essential read for anyone interested in Chinese history, art criticism, and the sociopolitical intricacies of the Northern Song dynasty. Dive into this scholarly work that not only redefines historical assumptions but also enriches your understanding of the vibrant world of Chinese painting and its influential figures.

Sizing is off.
Size: Small, Color: 3 Black
Much shorter than expected. Poor fit in the legs as well, at least for me. I’d say they are a couple inches shorter than the size chart. I expected them to be short, but not waiting for a flood. Material was nice but overall not a good fit for me.

Sensory Friendly
Size: X-Large, Color: Medium Grey
Sensory friendly. My son and I are both Autistic and finding comfortable clothing is challenging... Sweats and tshirts are our go to. These pants are an upgrade to our wardrobe- very comfortable and great for lounging at home or dressing them up with a nice shirt to go out for the day. I bought these for my son to try and he loved them! They were a little too tight, (winter weight) so I ordered two more in a bigger size. I however kept these because I love them too. The fabric is a nice and breathable with a slight give. I wore them outside yesterday in the hot AZ heat and I was comfortable and in the evening it cooled down with a rainstorm and I was happy I had these pants on. The pockets are amazing! Don’t get me started on pocket size vs phone size. My iPhone sits way deep in the front pocket and hits about thigh level… my iPhone isn’t going to fall out and that’s good peace of mind knowing my investment is safe. Overall my son and I are very happy with our new pants.

Cómodos, frescos y con un estilo increíble
Size: Medium, Color: 1 White
Estos pantalones superaron mis expectativas 😍 Se ven muy bien puestos, tienen un estilo moderno pero a la vez cómodo, perfecto para el día a día o para salir.
La tela es ligera y fresca, ideal para el calor, y lo mejor es que no incomodan para nada. Se ajustan bien al cuerpo sin apretar demasiado, lo que los hace súper cómodos para usarlos por horas.
Además, la calidad se siente buena y se ven más caros de lo que realmente son. Definitivamente una excelente compra, los volvería a pedir sin pensarlo 💯

Really nice men's long-sleeve, longline shirt
Size: Medium, Color: Wine Red
I ordered this casual crewneck shirt in Wine Red, size Medium, for my husband, and it's quite nice. The ribbed texture is not irritating to the skin, and the fabric is smooth and comfortable. In terms of fit, it is similar to a slim fit - not form-fitting, but also not too loose, so I'd say it's fairly true to size. One thing we both noticed was just how long the torso section was - quite a bit longer than most shirts. It is a longline shirt, but it is *long*. For his preference it's a bit too long, but if you're a woman in the habit of wearing your partner's clothing (Or you prefer the fit of men's clothes), this could be for you. The sleeves are an appropriate length for the size, so I wouldn't say this is necessarily suited to men who need a big & tall type of fit. Finally, the color - the wine red is a deep, rich red, and did not change in the wash.
Overall, I think this is a great addition to a men's casual wardrobe. Definitely recommend.
