Departure Herald Detail, "Departure Herald", 26 m (85 ft) in length, from the Chinese Xuande reign period (1425-1435 AD); the painting shows the emperor's large procession heading towards the imperial tombs of the Ming emperors located roughly 50 km north of the capital Beijing. This painting is usually paired with another panoramic painting called "Return Clearing", 30 m (98 ft) in length, which shows the emperor returning to the capital from the tombs by river boat.  From Paludan's source listed below, this passage describes a particular scene of this painting: "Detail of a silk scroll, The Emperor's Approach, showing the luxury in which the emperor Xuande travelled. Elephants were kept in the imperial elephant stables until around 1900 and were often used for ceremonial occasions, such as the emperor's visits to the Temple of Heaven. Here, however, the large number of horsemen accompanying the emperor's carriage suggests that the emperor was on a much longer journey in the countryside."  Paludan, Ann. (1998).

ヘラルドの離宮 、長さ26 m(85 ft)、中国の宣徳帝時代のもの。 絵画は、首都北京の北約50kmにある明皇帝の陵墓に向かう皇帝の大きな行列を表している。絵画は通常、30 m (98 ft)の長さの「回帰の除去」と呼ばれる別のパノラマ絵画と対になっており、皇帝が川船で墓から首都に戻ってくる様子が描かれている。下記パルダンの文献から、この一節は、本作に「絹本著色皇図」とあるが、宣徳帝が旅した贅沢ぶりを表している。1900年頃まで象は象厩に飼育され、天皇の天宮参りなど、祭事によく用いられた。しかし、ここでは天皇の馬車に随伴する多数の騎手が、天皇がずっと田舎を旅していたことを示唆している。パルダン、アン。「中国皇帝紀 中華皇帝主代の代記」ロンドン:テムズ&ハドソン株式会社 。
