A catalogue of the Ashmolean collection of Chinese paintings by Shelagh Vainker (published Oxford, 2000).
Dong Shouping was born in Hongdong, Shanxi province. He studied in Tianjin and Beijing and was initially a bird and flower painter. Later he concentrated on landscape painting, and Mount Huang in Anhui province proved to be one of his favourite subjects. In 1953 Dong joined the staff of the Rongbaozhai Studio in Beijing.
