Although the subject of the present lot cannot be determined with certainty, the scene appears to depict a narrative episode. One side shows a lady carrying a sword, accompanied by a young attendant holding a candle, suggesting a nocturnal setting. This may allude to the story of Hua Mulan, who famously took her father's place in battle, or alternatively to the episode of the concubine in the opera Farewell My Concubine, in which she performs a final sword dance before the defeated general Xiang Yu. The reverse, depicting a military figure in armour standing beside a horse as a lady approaches, would be consistent with either interpretation; however, a precise identification remains uncertain.
