Abstract

This paper explores the multidimensional construction and representation of women in the art, society, and culture of the Song Dynasty by analyzing female images in surviving Song Dynasty paintings. These images not only reflect the gender norms of the time but also reveal the diverse roles of women across different social strata through artistic depictions. Women from various classes are portrayed in different living conditions and social functions, illustrating the multifaceted expectations and norms imposed on women in Song society. Furthermore, the female images of the Song Dynasty were widely accepted and disseminated in later artistic, literary, and social contexts, profoundly influencing the perception and portrayal of women's roles during the Yuan, Ming, and Qing periods. Through a multidimensional analysis of Song Dynasty female images, this paper reveals the complex interplay between gender norms, cultural values, and women's status in Song society.
