The Tang Dynasty Copy of “Lan Ting Xu”

This “Lan Ting Xu” scroll currently in the possession of Hunan Provincial Museum was originally attributed to Chu Zhuliang. This scroll used silk paper for the main text. Because its color was brown, it is also known as “the brown silk paper scroll”. Its length is 24.5 cm and its width 65.6cm. Below the words “this article” in the last line are two vague red seals “the seal of Fu” and “Zi-you”.
