Notes
- General Note:
- The legendary figure of Zhong Kui the demon-queller was originally credited with curing the Tang emperor Minghuang from his sickness and driving away the demons haunting him. Afterwards the emperor asked the painter Wu Daozi to paint Zhong Kui's portrait, and he instructed that every family was to display his picture at New Year as a talisman against evil spirits. Usually Zhong Kui is shown dressed in green, with a half-closed eye, and only one shoe, in the act of slaying a demon with his left hand, and tearing out its eye with its right.
