The Heaven King holding the pagoda in this painting, the so-called Heaven King of the North, is one of the most revered Buddhas since the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The figure of the attendants around it has become a combination of Buddhism and Taoism. It was originally painted by Wei Monk and Yi Monk. However, if you carefully examine the brush and ink, it should belong to the style of Ming people.
