二郎神搜山圖卷-畫心
Imagine a mythological SWAT team raiding a forest—that's basically what's happening in this bustling handscroll. It depicts the legendary deity Erlang Shen leading a fierce army of heavenly soldiers and mythical beasts to hunt down demons hiding in the mountains. The scene is a chaotic masterpiece of Ming Dynasty storytelling, filled with warriors clashing with monsters, animals fleeing in terror, and rugged landscapes. Lu Zhi captured the frantic energy of the hunt with incredible detail, turning a divine mission into a visual action movie.
