In the seventeenth century, Ding Yunpeng became famous for his fantastical depictions of luohans. This scroll bears a signature by Ding, but the figures’ facial shapes and the fluttering, gossamer-light brushwork suggest that it is a nineteenth-century copy. At the far left side of the scroll near the top, the artist finished the composition with an exquisitely-drawn dragon descending on clouds, about to be tamed by the seated luohan who opens his mouth to call the beast to heel.
