On the woman's head, there is a phoenix painted on the right front to make her fly; Pterosaurs are painted on the reverse side of the phoenix, making it soar.

Guo Moruo once recognized it as "kuí" according to his early manuscripts. Later, the Hunan Provincial Museum carefully treated the original painting to remove dirt and reveal its original appearance. The feet on both sides of the dragon body are clearly visible, and the two corners on the faucet of the original copy are indeed added by mistake. Please click to enter a picture description.
