The Painting of Gao Yi is the only existing authentic work of Sun Wei, a noted painter in Sichuan at the end of the Song Dynasty (960-1279). The painting depicts four hermits of the "Zhu Lin Qi Xian" (seven hermits with superb talent enjoying their life in bamboo forest during the Wei Jin Period (220-420). Using wonderful skill, the painter expresses the spiritual disposition of these people perfectly. The painting was named by the Emperor Hui Zong of the Song Dynasty, who also made a short comment on the scroll.
