Wu Shuang Pu ('Table of Peerless Heroes') by Jin Guliang is a book of woodcut prints, first printed in 1694, early on in the Qing dynasty. This book contains the biographies and imagined portraits of 40 notable heroes and heroines from the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, all accompanied by a brief introduction and guided by a related poem in Yuefu style. The illustrations from the book were widely distributed and re-used, often as motifs on Chinese porcelain.

Li Bai (701-762) was one of the greatest and most important poets in Chinese history. Together with Du Fu, they became prominent figures during the Tang dynasty, also known as the ‘Golden Age of Chinese Poetry’. Around 1000 poems are attributed to him, their contents celebrating friendship, nature, and the joys of drinking.

Dongfang Shou is considered a Daoist immortal in Chinese mythology and the spirit of Venus who incarnated as a series of ancient ministers including Laozi. According to legend, Dongfang attempted to steal one of the famous 'peaches of longevity' from the orchard of Xi Wangmu, the Queen Mother of the West, whose palace was believed to be in the Kunlun Mountains. The peaches were believed to ripen only once in 3,000 years and to confer immortality on anyone who ate them.
