Español: Sakyamuni, Lao Tse y Confucio

Tres figuras con túnica están de pie sobre una saliente rocosa envuelta en neblina, bajo ramas retorcidas y sin hojas, pintadas con tinta y color suave sobre papel. La figura central, barbuda, viste una túnica rojiza, mientras que las laterales llevan prendas blancas, una de ellas apoyada en un bastón.

Três figuras de vestes permanecem de pé sobre uma saliência rochosa envolta em névoa, sob galhos retorcidos e desfolhados, pintadas com tinta e cor suave sobre papel. A figura central, barbuda, veste um manto avermelhado, enquanto as laterais usam trajes brancos, uma delas apoiada em um cajado.
