This long tracing copy of a handscroll shows Xie"s interest in compositional arrangement. For example, details of a lotus root and longyan (longan fruit) at the far left are upside-down mirror images of the same elements found at the center of the composition. This indicates that Xie was not content merely to copy an earlier work but might actively rework an existing design.
