Measuring 109x40.5 cm, this artwork depicts Ge Changgeng, the fifth patriarch of the Southern Sect of Chan Buddhism, seated gracefully on a mystical creature known as the Three-legged Toad.

The vibrant colors bring life to this ancient masterpiece while preserving its traditional essence. This print offers viewers a glimpse into Chinese culture and spirituality through its portrayal of Taoism and Buddhist symbolism.
