Miracle of the Dragon

A hanging scroll of a red-robed monk seated on a rocky outcrop beside a coiled, scaled dragon. Above, a haloed seated bodhisattva in orange robes gazes down from a cloud, while robed attendants and a kneeling figure in red gather at lower left.

Look closer: A small bird flies near the bodhisattva's cloud at the upper right, almost lost in the mountain mist.
