Paintings of this type are normally dated to the 16th and 17th centuries, and belong to the group of Buddhist Land and Water, or Shuilu, ritual sets of paintings. The inscriptions in the banners preceding the deities names each group.

A similar single painting was sold in our New York Rooms, 22 March 1999, lot 129.
