Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Handscroll;Ink and color on silk;198cm(width)*22cm(height)

This work depicts thirteen concubines and maids with buns perched high on their heads, with slender eyes and round faces, wearing long dresses trailing on the ground, sitting idly with their fans. They are engaged in activities like opening purses, playing musical instruments, putting on makeup in front of the mirror, embroidering, fanning, resting, and other daily situations.

The scroll is arranged horizontally to display the various activities of the figures. The rhythm varies, and the composition is highly organized. The figures are richly dressed with well-rounded figures, but they appear melancholy, lonely, frustrated, and depressed.
