摘要

The other day, I visited a museum in Shaoxing’s Dongpu town that displayed a scroll running around all four walls of the room. It represents the people of Shaoxing going about their daily lives. The guide said the15-meter-long work depicts the most human figures in a painting anywhere in the world and is considered to be the Shaoxing equivalent of the Qingming Scroll from the Song Dynasty (960-1279).
