Uncovering the Hidden Process of Imperial Chinese Painting
Faculty Sponsor: Roberta Bickford

By examining Song Dynasty imperial paintings first-hand, applying computer-aided pattern recognition and receiving training in ancient painting methods, Tiffany hoped to rewrite long-standing beliefs about Chinese art history and artistic attribution.
