注脚
The present lot is a rubbing taken from the "Wu Family Shrine", an Eastern Han period (25-220CE) funerary shrine belonging to the Wu family located in Shandong province, China and discovered in 1786. The shrine serves as an example of Han pictorial and funerary traditions. This rubbing was taken from the upper section of a side wall. It depicts the King Father of the East sitting above disciples and a chariot procession below. Many scholars believe such a procession indicates the high social standing of the deceased. Another example of this rubbing is in the collection of the Princeton University Art Museum.
