Comments from FHT Director Huisheng Chen:

This is a Chinese version of ukiyo ye style of story painting, not a book. The story of the painting was about the law enforcement of the mortal world employing falconry birds and hounds to hunt down the renegades of the immortals world. These renegades included human spirit that wondered around, refusing to go back the underworld, the demons of natural beings...animals, rocks, mountains.... The title of this painting is "searching the mountains". The artist was an anonymous artist from Song Dynasty.

Price - 60 yuan.
