"...a stimulating and well-documented discussion of art collecting in late-thirteenth century China." – Julia K. Murray, in: CAA Reviews (2004)"In this authoritative and amply explicated version, Zhou Mi’s Record of Clouds and Mist suggests many ideas for further inquiry and lends itself to a range of historical studies. Weitz’s own thought-provoking discussion of its bearing on collecting and the art market, of social and economic history, should be the first of many." – Susan E. Nelson, in: Artibus Asiae (2004)"…Weitz’s book engages us in a new view of collecting culture in the artistic and social contexts of thirteenth-century China… This pubication solidly advances modern scholaship on the course of Chinese art and painting." – Diana Yeongchau Chou, in: Journal of the American Oriental Society (2003)
