Pannello — Storia e analisi

Questo pannello potrebbe raffigurare l'Imperatore Ming Huang (712–742) nella sua ricerca per raggiungere l'immortalità. Uno dei suoi maghi trasformò un bastone di bambù in un ponte verso la luna, dove l'imperatore sperava di trovare l'elisir di vita. Il pannello fu originariamente realizzato per decorare una parete.

Uno dei suoi proprietari lo trasformò successivamente in uno schermo per il fuoco.
