Subject:Reverse Glass Arhat Painting
Posted By: andrew Wed, Jul 12, 2017 IP: 2601:0900:4380:0ec0: I'm very interested to know the story in this piece. I am assuming it is several Luohan. Is this just an imaginative picture or based on a known story? |

Posted By: Bill H Thu, Jul 13, 2017 At least a few of them appear to be from the group known as the "Eight Immortals", especially those standing on the clouds. Wikipedia is a good spot to I.D. Arhats and Immortals alike. Circa 1900 or a bit later sounds like a safe call. |

Posted By: andrew Thu, Jul 13, 2017 Great thank you. So this is the battle with the Dragon king of the eastern sea. I will have to familiarize myself with these tales. |
