Stylistically, the method of rendering the horse and background is very close to another painting in the museum’s collection, “The Emperor Hsüan-tsung of the Ming Dynasty on Horseback”. Since the latter painting was done in the Ming Painting Academy, we may deduce that our present painting must have also come out of the some academy.&*1.林柏亭、張華芝,〈無名氏畫虎馬鬥圖〉,收入林柏亭、張華芝編,《畫馬名品特展圖錄》(臺北:國立故宮博物院,1990年元月初版),頁95。
