Thesis (Ph.D.)--New York University, 2024.

This dissertation presents an art history of gender and power in China at the turn of the 8th century through the lens of marriage. Marriage in the scope of this research is not only an arrangement people committed to during their lifetime, but also a continuation and reconstruction in their death. Husband-and-wife joint burials-concealed architectural space furnished with sculptures, mural paintings, stone carvings, and decorative arts-preserve, and in some cases, reinvent the imagery of marriage through the elevation, erasion, and manipulation of funerary arts. This dissertation examines three spousal joint burials in which the wives were featured more prominently than the husbands. By juxtaposing the imagery of marriage constructed by the visual and material expressions in burial with the individual experience in marriage retrieved from various textual sources, I argue that these spousal joint burials served as a site of power negotiation to rehabilitate familial lineages, monumentalize political achievements, and carry out dynastic campaigns.Meanwhile, the funerary arts dedicated to these women analyzed in this dissertation sheds light on a specific mode of agency in art production beyond the conventional discourse centered on the artist, the people represented, and the patron. Funerary arts are not only symbolic, commissioned to reflect a relationship capable of exerting power on the human networks above ground; they are equally important as objects of affect that carry the lived experiences of the dead and address the emotional responses of the living.
