Tang women were the most fortunate of all in China’s feudal history. They lived in a period of unprecedented economic prosperity, cultural and artistic diversity and, most significantly, gender equality. Such parity engendered the feminine charms synonymous with women of that glorious epoch: plump wholesome beauty, candidness, warmth and artistic versatility. These attributes were further enhanced by the artistic execution and gorgeous workmanship of Tang haute couture.
Yang Yuhuan personied all the charm, beauty and versatility associated with Tang women. She was one of the “Four Beauties of Ancient China” as well as its most graceful dancer. Fate, however, is not always kind to the privileged. Yang Yuhuan’s legendary existence spannedh eaven andh ell, creating a classic romance that was inevitably associated with one of ancient China’s greatest tragedies.
