This book offers the first history of the rediscovery of a UNESCO World Heritage site in China, Longmen’s caves and the Buddhist statuary of Luoyang. Drawing on fieldwork and archival sources, Wang traces the ties between cultural heritage and modernity, unraveling how this historical monument has been understood from antiquity to the present.
