Album of Daoist and Buddhist Themes: Procession of Daoist Deities: Lea

A faint ink drawing on tan paper shows three figures striding through swirling clouds. At left, a deity with a flaming halo raises a long staff, while a bundled, hooded figure walks at center. At right, a tall, bearded figure in flowing robes turns toward the viewer, his sleeves and hem billowing.

Look closer: A small red seal impression sits in the lower right corner beside the leaf number.
