Zhenxian shiji (Episodic Vestiges of the Perfected Transcendent)1018/90

Daoist album leaf. Painting depicting Xu Xun and the iron pillar restraining drifters. Three figures with red hair and mallots are depicted along with a crowd of people with objects hidden from view hanging from yokes that are slung over their shoulders, all looking at what appears to be burning buildings, and a seated figure in yellow and blue robes surrounded by several warriors with swords and sticks. There are several building roofs surrounded by clouds in the background. A cylindrical object in the foreground has multicoloured flames emerging from the top and is surrounded by several building roofs partially obscured by clouds with a wall at the very front. The painting is mounted on off-white damask-patterned silk on paper.
