As a whole, the condition of this scroll is so-so.
Although, it was painted very well.
This is famous scene of Chinese history ( Of course, the painter is Japanese
).
Kanshin was genius general of the Han dynasty.
Though, the king looked suspiciously at him.
Kanshin had to run away from pursuers.
Once, the officer of barrier doubted him and asked him to go under the
officer's legs.
The officer thought that if this man was really Kanshin, he would never
go under legs because of his pride.
Kanshin went under the officer's legs.
Finally, the officer admitted Kanshin to pass the barrier.
That scene was express very well on this painting.
