High Simulation Painting of Chong Ping Hui Qi Tu
A screen is depicted within the screen in the painting, which accounts for the name of this painting "Double Screen". Set in a finely decorated room, four noble men assemble around a chess table before a screen. They are intensely involved in the game: one is urging his opponent to settle on a move, while the other still hesitates. The other two are observing the game attentively and quietly. It is widely agreed that the protagonist, the one wearing a high hat, is Li Jing (916-961), the second emperor of the Southern Tang dynasty (937-975). Thus the painting depicts leisure life at the court.
In addition to the lifelike portraits, the painting also presents interior decoration, including a pitch pot, a screen, a chest, couch, and tea set. These decorations and furniture are crucial visual evidence for the study on the daily-used accoutrements of the Five Dynasties and imperial gatherings for recreation.
The painting bears no seals or name of Zhou Wenju. According to the painting connoisseur Xu Bangda, this is a faithful Song dynasty copy.
