Further details

For over five decades, Professor Richard Edwards (1916-2016) stood as one of the foremost authorities on Chinese paintings and one of the field’s most visionary advocates in the United States. His first encounter with China took place between 1944 and 1946, when he volunteered as a driver along the Burma Road, delivering medical supplies to civilians during wartime. Upon returning to the United States, he married Vee Tsung Ling (1918-1992), from whom he studied the Chinese language at Yale. From 1960 to 1986, he taught at the History of Art Department at the University of Michigan. It was during this time that his pioneering scholarship on Shitao culminated in a landmark exhibition, the first in the United States devoted to a premodern Chinese artist. Professor Edwards’s immense contributions to the study of the history of Chinese painting have expanded and enriched the field, notable among which are his monographs on artists Ma Yuan, Shen Zhou and Wen Zhengming that continue to be influential today.
