However, the idea of filial piety is not static, instead, it is ever-changing and dynamic. Many Chinese artworks engage with this subject, and the Yuan-dynasty \u5143 (1271-1368) handscroll painting <em>Si Xiao Tu<\/em> \u56db\u5b5d\u5716 (Four Stories of Filial Piety) is one of them. Presently collected in the Taipei National Palace Museum, the pictures of the handscroll render four stories of filial piety. In its current arrangement, it begins with the narrative of the wife of Wang Wuzi \u738b\u6b66\u2f26 of the Tang dynasty \u5510 (618-907), and then Lu Ji \u9678\u7e3e of the Three Kingdoms period \u4e09\u570b (220-280), Wang Xiang \u738b\u7965 of the Jin dynasty \u6649 (266-420) , and, at the end, Cao E \u66f9\u5a25 of the Eastern Han dynasty \u6771\u6f22 (25-220). Examining this handscroll may assist us in construing the development of the concept of filial piety and its pictorial traditions, especially under Mongol governance in the Yuan era. Seeking to explore the meaning of the representation of pain and the significance of the subject of filial piety, I will reconstruct the formation and function of this handscroll at the time when it was produced.<\/p>\n<h5>Speaker<\/h5>\n<p>Liu Meichen Annie is currently a MPhil candidate, studying at the Department of Art History and specializing in Song to Yuan figure painting.
