The hanging roll shows a bizarre mountain scenery with two hostels, travelers in wagons and singers, on animals and on foot. Contrary to the imaginary landscape, there are the detailed scenes that tell about the everyday life of the travelers: On the right side of the picture lies a distinguished hostel, on the left a simple resting place with cooking. Yuan Yao served as a court painter for the Chinese emperors Yongzheng (1723-1734) and Qianlong (1736-1795). The hanging roller shows its technical brilliance and a skillful connection of decorative-fantastic and realistic elements.
