Anotations

Scope note:

First coined in the 1980s (Su Bai 1982, 141-142), yingzuo mugou is a modern term adopted by archaeologists and art historians referring to painted representations of timber architectural components in underground architecture (e.g. tombs and reliquary chambers beneath pagodas). The meaning of yingzuo here as a “painted representation of something” has departed from its original context in the Yingzao fashi. Similar appropriations appeared in 1950s (Su Bai 1957), such as in painted representations of door lintels (yingzuo men’e 影作門額), and painted representations of bracket-sets (yingzuo puzuo 影作鋪作).
