Rolf Geyling studierte bei Karl Konig und Otto Wagner Architektur und war sodann in Wien und Bukarest tatig. Im Ersten Weltkrieg wurde er an der Ostfront in Galizien eingesetzt, geriet jedoch bereits nach wenigen Monaten in russische Gefangenschaft und war in mehreren sibirischen Lagern inhaftiert. Nach funf Jahren Gefangenschaft floh Rolf Geyling in Russlands Nachbarland China, wo er als erfolgreicher Architekt sowie Lehrer an der Kung Shan Universitat tatig werden konnte, und als Vizehonorarkonsul die Republik Osterreich vertrat. Geylings beispiellose Biographie ist durch Tagebucher, Briefe, Aufzeichnungen seiner Frau und seines Sohnes sowie durch zahllose Fotos, Skizzen und Plane dokumentiert. Die einzelnen Stationen von Rolf Geylings Lebensweg werden an Hand neuerer Quellen und neuerer Forschungsergebnisse in einen erweiterten geschichtlichen und kulturhistorischen Zusammenhang eingebettet und seine architektonische Tatigkeit in einem grosseren architekturhistorischen Kontext analysiert.
