This project digitized and enhanced a Ming scroll depicting a street in Nanjing during the Lantern Festival marking the end of Lunar New Year. Users zoom in to examine details that were unrecognizable prior to digital enhancement, and click on hotspots to learn more information.

Papers discussed at this conference, the first the Geiss Hsu Foundation supported, were published in Culture, Courtiers, and Competition: The Ming Court (1368–1644). Ed. David M. Robinson. Cambridge: Harvard University Asia Center, 2008.
