Wood Carving Art By Zheng Chunhui

Another version by five Qing Dynasty court painters (Chen Mu, Sun Hu, Jin Kun, Dai Hong and Cheng Zhidao) was presented to the Emperor Qianlong on January 15, 1737. This version was later moved, along with many other artifacts, to the National Palace Museum in Taipei in 1949.
There are many more people, over 4,000, in the Qing remake, which also is much larger (at 11 metres by 35 cm, or 37 ft by 1 ft). The leftmost third of this version is within the palace, with buildings and people appearing refined and elegant. Most people within the castle are women, with some well-dressed officials.

The poem reads as follows:
