• Description:
  Shen Zhou (1427-1509 AD), one of the four great masters of the Ming Dynasty, was named Qinan and Shitian. He was good at poetry, calligraphy and painting. This volume of painting figures, with cars and horses walking between the mountains and waters, has no signature of the author, but it seems to be different from Shen Zhou. Xiang Yuanbian wrote in the tail that “Shen Shitian painted a picture of the Korean official painting. It was written on Mount Heng. Xiang Yuanbian really appreciated it in the ink forest. In the spring and March of the 31st year of Jiajing’s reign in the Ming Dynasty (1552), it was already installed in the pool. Fortunately”, and the word “happiness” was numbered 719 in thousand words. However, the Chinese inscription of Zhengming Wuwu Year (1558) is later than that of Xiang’s tail year, which obviously has some contradictions.
