Among them, the "Album of Four Spirited Women" of the Yuan Dynasty collected by the Guangzhou Art Museum is a group of works with distinct imprints of the times and unique painting language, telling the story of the four "martyr women" in ancient times who observed feudal etiquette. The volume consists of seven pages, of which the third to fifth pages are the story content written by "Gradually Avoiding the Water", "Li's Broken Arm", "Thorn Tiger Rescuer" and Xiao Kai. The three pictures select three typical moments of the story and dramatically recreate the story scene. According to reports, there should be "Jie Yu Blocking Bears" in the "Four Spirited Women", but this work is lost.

At the same time, among the eight immortals on display in the exhibition, Wang Su's "Eight Immortals" of the Qing Dynasty depicts the scene of the eight immortals crossing the sea, and the images of the eight immortals are different; the "Portrait of Li Ningyang" of Su Renshan in the Qing Dynasty depicts the back of the iron abduction Li with ink pen, with a bucket and a huge gourd behind him, holding a crutch, the composition of the work is unique, the lines are smooth, and the character image is simple.
In addition, the exhibition also exhibited three "Roselle Diagrams", written by Gao Qipei, Fei Danxu and Ju Lian. These three works are separately extracted from the theme of "Roselle", omitting the storyline, and the appearance of the work is closer to that of a female painting, showing the beautiful image of Roselle "in the water of The Fangzi Luo, fluttering like a snow dance back to the wind".
