Once categorized as a missing masterpiece, a scroll painting by the legendary 12th-century Chinese artist, Li Gong-ling, has recently been acquired by a Taiwanese collector, who has loaned it for display in a Taipei exhibition this week. However, not all experts are convinced of its authenticity.

This 418-centimeter painting is believed to be the work of Northern Song painter Li Gonglin.

The scroll features more than 140 figures, including humans, buddhas, ghosts, and gods, and depicts the transformation of Hariti from a cannibalistic demon to a protector of children.

The scroll bears the seal of the Emperor Qianlong, and is believed to have once been part of the Qing imperial collection.

The painting disappeared from the Forbidden City in 1922, and its whereabouts were unknown for decades.

It was recently purchased by a collector in Taiwan, but its authenticity is in question as the canvas does not bear Li's signature or seal.

If it is in fact authentic, the painting is nearly 1,000 years old and valued at more than 100 million NT. The scroll will be on exhibit for one week.
