Description:
Towards the end of Preparing Medicine, the famous Ming Dynasty calligrapher, Zhu Yunming (1460-1526), inscribed it with "The Renxuan Eulogy for the physician Lu Yuezhi." From this inscription, we know that Tang Yin made this painting for the physician, Lu Yuezhi. Additionally, the poem inscribed on the painting by Tang Yin himself explains how he unfortunately had had some trouble with his lungs, and required some efficacious medicine. Hence, this painting likely is a token of gratitude for the doctor. Preparing Medicine depicts a landscape with a pavilion above and shady pine trees below. In the center a Daoist practitioner sits resting, while a youth tends the stove in order to process cinnabar. This painting has many meanings, the most apparent of which commends the successful doctor, who produces the efficacious medicine that combats sickness and cures people.
