From the Art Institute of Chicago record
Here, a beautiful young woman riding on a phoenix holds pan pipes ( sho ) in her hands. The numbers for the long months of the year are visible on her sleeve. This subject probably refers to a Chinese immortal. One possibility is the sage who was known for his enchanting flute playing, while another is the sage who was often pictured riding a phoenix.
