From the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicting 10 plates from the festival. The festival as seen on the Yellow River has been painted many times and is derived from a twelfth-century painting by Chang Tse-tuan, who was commissioned by the Emperor Huo Tsug about 1120 to paint a panorama of the capital, Pien Ching (the present K'ai Feng), and the Yellow River. Loose and toned pages, front and back cover not attached and with missing pieces.
