Album of Daoist and Buddhist Themes: Search the Mountain: Leaf 43, 1200s. This leaf and the one nearby belongs to a group of sketches with the theme "Clearing the Mountains" ( soushan tu ). The textual basis has long been lost; only the paintings survive. Here, fearsome divine soldiers fight against evil spirits depicted as animals and human-like creatures in mountains and forests. At the lower left, a soldier attacks a ram. To the right, two soldiers attempt to subdue a tiger. Three soldiers (one wielding a sword) emerge from an opening in the cliffs.
