An ink and color on paper handscroll depicts a long horizontal scene. Hundreds of small figures in armor or robes populate a landscape of green hills and buildings from our left to our right. Some ride horses while others carry spears and bows. A larger red figure stands on our far right. Muted red and green colors appear across the tan paper. Vertical seams divide the joined sheets of paper.
