The painting of "Goddess of the River Luo" was drawn by the famous artist Gu Kaizhi (348 - 409) of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It is about six meters in length and was created in ink with light color on a silk scroll. The theme of the painting came from the namesake poetic prose written by Cao Zhi (192 - 232), from Wei of the Three Kingdoms. Cao Zhi described his love as Luoshen (Goddess of the River Luo), expressing his strong feeling for her. Based on the description of the prose, the painting vividly portrays the artistic mood in three parts. Gu's style of painting is bold, natural and easy. Gu Kaizhi, styling himself Changkang, was born in Wuxi in today's Jiangsu Province. He was a versatile man who was good at painting, and figure painting in particular. His paintings are life-like and he is known for his brilliant finishing touches. "Goddess of the River Luo" is one of his masterpieces.
