The study of the Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms in the West can be traced back to as early as in the late 19th<\/sup> century, such as the French Sinologist, Le Marquis d\u2019Hervey de Saint Denys (1883), and the English missionary, George W. Clarke (1890). Others too had their own experiences of visiting and studying the remote Yunnan province in Southwest China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 20th<\/sup> century, a group of scholars from various countries conducted some in-depth research regarding the Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms from diverse perspectives. For instance, N. Matsumoto (1950), a Japanese linguist, began to determine the origin of the language of the Ailao people, and the French researcher, Camille Auguste Jean Sainson (1904), focused his work on the translation of the Unofficial History of Nanzhao.<\/em> Most significantly, Helen Burwell Chapin (1944), analysed the iconography of Nanzhao and Dali Buddhist art based on a rare painting held by the National Palace Museum in Taipei. This pioneering research analysed the Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms from cultural, historical and religious perspectives, which today is the cornerstone for academic research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
