Based on extensive historical research, this book reconstructs the true image of this talented woman of the Republic of China era through three dimensions: images, design, and personality. "Those Misunderstood Old Photos" examines historical images, revealing her professional attitude as an architect; "Designed Covers and Mastheads" showcases her aesthetic practice that blends Chinese and Western styles, such as the ingenuity in designing the national emblem "based on a jade disc, with five stars as its soul"; "Quality in Adversity" focuses on the scholarly spirit of the couple during the War of Resistance against Japan, who surveyed ancient buildings while ill, safeguarding cultural roots. The entire book uses empirical evidence to dismantle the stereotype of the "scandalous talented woman," reshaping her three-dimensional image as one of "rationality and poetry coexisting."
