Deity Wang Ling Guan, nianhua New Year’s picture, Deity serving as the chairman of the Ministry of Fire, early 20th century, Yanzhou, Chinese, graphic print, height 19.5 cm, width 19.5 cm, A faded monochrome drawing on beige paper framed by a darker gray border shows a seated figure with a rounded halo-like shape behind the head. The figure wears a layered, ruffled collar and a tall, textured headpiece, and the face is rendered with simple, stylized lines and shaded hatch marks. The body is clothed in ornate, patterned robes with curved, flowing sleeves and decorative geometric shapes, and the hands rest in front holding a thin object.
