Summary
| Description |
English: One of the rare extant paper paintings of the Tang Dynasty (618-907). "Five Oxen" is a painting by Han Huang (韓滉), a prime minister in the Tang Dynasty (618–907). The painting was lost during the occupation of Beijing by the Eight-Nation Alliance in 1900 and later recovered from a collector in Hong Kong during the early 1950s. Now it is stored in the Palace Museum in Beijing. The painting is 139.8 cm long and 20.8 cm wide.
The earliest inscription on the painting is from the Yuan Dynasty while there is no inscription of the creator. The official seal of the Southern Song government on the work indicates that it had been displaced from North China where the painting was created to South China, and maybe many inscriptions earlier than the Yuan Dynasty have been lost during the journey. |
