This book centers on animal paintings from the National Palace Museum in Taipei. It tells the stories of these animals, many of which originated overseas and were brought to the East as diplomatic gifts, highlighting the cultural exchanges between East and West while weaving in historical insights. Featuring original paintings alongside the author's reinterpretations, the book invites readers to compare and appreciate both, sparking imagination and offering a fresh perspective on ancient artifacts.
