    Chinese Paintings in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

    Hu Peiheng, from Zhuo Xian in Hebei province, was of Mongolian nationality and spent most of his career in Peking. He was a member of the traditionalist Peking-based painting society Hu She, which flourished in the 1920s, and was editor of its monthly journal Hushe yuekan. He taught at many institutions in Peking, and was a prolific writer of books on painting method; in conjunction with Yu Zhao (q.v.) he was responsible for a new edition of the seventeenth century Mustard Seed Garden Manual of Painting.
