He named the house Yin Yu Tang. For seven generations, members of the Huang family ate, slept, laughed, cried, married, and gave birth in the house. By the mid-1990s, the surviving Huang family members moved away leaving the house empty and abandoned. In 1997 the house was moved to the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, and opened as a permanent exhibit.Yin Yu Tang provides a fascinating, in-depth look at Chinese domestic culture, architecture, craftsmanship, history, and the impact of these influences on individual lives. Nancy Berliner, one of the country's foremost experts on Chinese furniture and arts, takes the reader on a tour of this unique homestead providing detail on Yin Yu Tang's architecture, construction methods, decoration, furniture, and family heirlooms. She weaves a story of Chinese domestic life, culture, and the remarkable restoration and reconstruction at the Peabody Essex Museum in America. 520 Also includes information on ancestor worship, Madame Cheng, Communist revolution, death, education, fengshui, fish pools, Huang Cun (village), Huizhou District, merchants and merchant lifestyle, tamped earth houses, weddings and marriage, women, Xiuning County, etc. 530 Also issued online. 600 30 Huang family. 650 0 Architecture, Domestic|zChina|zHuizhou Diqu. 650 0 Vernacular architecture|zChina|zHuizhou Diqu. 651 0 Huizhou Diqu (China)|xSocial life and customs. 650 17 Woningen.|2gtt 650 17 Dagelijks leven.|2gtt 710 2 Peabody Essex Museum. 776 08 |iOnline version:|aBerliner, Nancy Zeng, 1958-|tYin Yu Tang.|dBoston : Tuttle Pub., 2003|w(OCoLC)607742689 856 41 |3Table of contents only|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy1012/2002041621-t.html 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information|uhttp:// catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0828/2002041621- b.html 856 42 |3Publisher description|uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy0828/2002041621-d.html 938 Baker & Taylor|bBKTY|c34.95|d26.21|i0804834873|n0004108399 |sactive 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n1935461 938 Ingram|bINGR|n9780804834872 994 02|bCKE
