Its strength is a full academic monograph treatment examining Yongle Palace, including the Chongyang Hall, as one of its central case studies. Its limit is academic density rather than an institutional site record naming current conservation status.FactsClaims Backed By This Source (31 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsCitationAuthorWell-attestedLennert GesterkampPublisherWell-attestedLeiden University (dissertation); expanded edition published by Brill as The Heavenly Court: Daoist Temple Painting in China, 1200 to 1400 (2011)Publication YearWell-attested2011URLWell-attestedhttps://scholarlypublications.universiteitleiden.nl/handle/1887/12632Source TypeWell-attestedThesisAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1A Leiden University doctoral dissertation, examined and approved by a faculty reading committee, the standard form of peer review for a scholarly dissertation, later expanded into a Brill monograph; treated at the top tier as that peer reviewed scholarship.Claims Backed By This Source (31 claims)This source backs 31 claims across the atlas.
