A large ox surrounded by seven smaller ones crowns a bronze container in Shanghai. A separate weaving scene from Lijiashan gives another use for the sculpted lid.

A cow, a tiger and a smaller calf turn a bronze table into an encounter between object and image. The find belongs to a tomb at Lijiashan, while the surviving piece is displayed in Kunming.
