Water and Land Ritual paintings

The Water and Land Ritual paintings is a set thirty six Chinese mythological paintings from 1454.[1] The paintings were part of a larger set, as indicated by the incomplete representation of certain themes on the extant scrolls.[1] The majority of paintings (thirty four) are housed in the Guimet Museum and the remaining two are kept in the Cleveland Museum of Art.
