Luohans Moving Through Forests and Sea
Formerly attributed to Fanlong 梵隆 (active mid-12th century) · 16th-17th century
In this painting two luohan crossing the sea, one riding a dragon and another a turtle, are greeted by an emperor-like figure holding a scholar's tablet, bowing in respect. A servant carries a tripod vessel on his head as a gift. The scroll ends with three women at the door of an underwater palace.
