The original of this work is from the grandest Cave 4 of the Majishan Grottoes, featuring four celestial musicians. On the left side of the painting, two Feitian fly towards the right, one holding a tambourine and a drumstick, while the other holds cymbals. On the right side, two Feitian fly towards each other, one playing a horn while looking back, and the other playing a harp.

The original artists made bold innovations by creating shallow relief sculptures for the exposed muscles of the Feitian's faces, upper arms, hands, and feet using fine mud, while painting was used for garments, ribbons, flowing clouds, and celestial elements. This unprecedented combination of painting and sculpting techniques was referred to as "thin-flesh sculpture" by the painting master Wu Zuoren in 1953.

This work was created in 1996. Mr. Liu Junqi faithfully reproduced the original painting, spending 36 months on a scaffold as high as 10 meters to complete this monumental work.

Since the late 1960s, Liu Junqi has been studying painting and wall mural copying in Dunhuang. After spending 10 years studying and working at the Mogao Caves, he was admitted to the Fine Arts Department of Northwest Normal University. Upon graduation, he joined the Tianshui Maijishan Grottoes Art Research Institute.

Over the next 30 years, he participated in and led the copying and preservation work of the Buddhist mural paintings in the Maijishan Grottoes, earning international acclaim for these murals.

Liu Junqi is known for his works featuring a variety of mural copying styles and unique large-scale expressive ink paintings of horses. These works not only integrate the characteristics of Chinese grotto murals but also embody the essence of traditional Chinese painting.
