Image description

From Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute by unidentified artist, after Song Academy painter Scenes from the life of Lady Wenji (Cai Yan), who was abducted by a horde of marauding barbarians about A.D. 195 and spent twelve years among the Xiongnu, a Mongol tribe, as wife of their chieftain to whom she bore two children before she was finally ransomed and returned to China. The costumes of the nomad invaders here are those of the Khitan people, who established the Liao dynasty (907–1125) in northeastern China
