This collection comprises 28 illustration sheets—including 4 color drawings and 24 black-and-white plates—from Liang Sicheng’s seminal work Qing-Style Architectural Standards (Qing Shi Yingzao Zeli). These meticulously rendered plates document the structural systems, decorative elements, and construction principles of Qing-dynasty architecture, preserving invaluable technical knowledge of traditional Chinese building methods. As both architectural record and artistic achievement, these drawings reflect Liang’s pioneering scholarship and his dedication to safeguarding China’s architectural heritage for future generations.
