The central scene on the front of this rare table screen, depicting a tranquil fisherman peacefully awaiting a bite on his line, probably represents the famed military strategist Jiang Ziya (also known as Jiang Taigong). A famous episode of his life relays the first encounter between Jiang Ziya and King Wen of Zhou, when the king was on a hunting trip near the north bank of the river Wei and came across Jiang fishing. Jiang went on to become a minister and close advisor of King Wen and Wu of Zhou, helping the Zhou kingdom overthrow the Shang.

For a full representation of the first encounter between Jiang Ziya and King Wen see a famille verte dish illustrated by J. P. Stamen and C. Volk in A Culture Revealed, Kangxi-Era Chinese Porcelain from the Jie Rui Tang Collection, Boston, 2017, pp. 92-93, no. 29.
