Tribute refers to an activity in which ancient countries and domestic ethnic minority leaders paid tribute to the Emperor of the Central Plains to show submission or alliance.
The theme of "Gong Tu" has existed since ancient times, and it is a documentary picture depicting the image of ethnic minorities or foreign tribute envoys in China. Half of these images are based on the actual scenes of various exotic dynasties at that time, and half are based on the contents of various tribute maps of the past, incorporating the knowledge, memory and imagination that remain in history into seemingly realistic paintings. The "Tribute Map" of the past generations mainly depicts the image of the tribute missions of various countries, leaving first-hand materials for today's people to understand the costumes, customs and specialties of the countries of the world in that year.
Qiu Ying's "Tribute Map" depicts the scene of the frontier ethnic minorities entering the Capital to pay tribute. Eleven tributary teams are depicted in turn: the Lord of the Eighteen Caves of Nine Streams, Han'er, Bohai, Khitan, Kunlun, Queen, Srivijaya, Tubo, Annamhe, Western Xia, and Joseon. In the picture, the peaks along the way are rolling, the white clouds are swirling, the mountain roads are rugged, the trees are covered, and the waterfalls flow. Several tributes and horses dressed in strange costumes of various ethnic groups, carrying large banners, leading horses and camels, and carrying treasures slowly marched. There are many characters in the picture, the scene is grand, the composition is complicated but not chaotic, and it is orderly.
The whole picture is rigorously written, the character portrayal is vivid and meticulous, and the color is bright and vulgar, which is a masterpiece of Qiu Ying's character painting.

Han'er: "Han'er" is the name of ethnic minorities for Han Chinese.
Bohai Sea
The Bohai State (698–926) was a regime in ancient East Asia dominated by the Jing people, which covered an area equivalent to present-day northeastern China, northeastern Korea, and part of the Russian Far East. In 698, The leader of the Su Dynasty (一白山鞨鞨) leader DazuoRong proclaimed himself "King Zhen" (一作振) at Dongmu Mountain (present-day Dunhua, Jilin) and established a political power. In 713, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang made Dazuorong the "King of Bohai County" and made him the governor of Kuhan Prefecture, starting with the title of "Bohai". In 926, the Bohai state was destroyed by the Khitan state, and the Khitan used its land as the Eastern Dan kingdom. The Bohai kingdom lasted 229 years and passed on 15 kings. Although the Bohai Sea is culturally developed, the documents passed down from generation to generation are obliterated, and the original materials on which it relies are only the relevant records of the Tang Dynasty and Japan at that time and the archaeological excavations of later generations, so many problems related to the Bohai State are difficult to solve, especially its historical status and belonging issues have always been a point of controversy between China, Korea, South Korea and other countries.

At the end of the volume are Wen Zhengming, Zhang Daqian, Wu Hufan, and Zhang Naiyan. Once clear. Liang Qingbiao, Huaiyun, Qianlong Inner House and other collections.
Originally, Peng Nianbao, who was at the end of the volume: "This volume was painted in the huaiyun Chen Junjia family, Chen Jun's famous official, Changzhou people, and Shizhou Shan. The pavilion of the mountain pavilion is often prone to cold and heat, and it is not forced to be forced, and it is painted by it." It can be seen that this picture was painted by Qiu Ying for Chen Guan, a wealthy merchant in Changzhou (present-day Suzhou). Today, there is still Wen ZhengMingbao, and Peng Nianbao is no longer where he went.
