Not all witches were women; men also performed magic. Unlike the destructive and sexualized stereotypes of female witches, male magicians were likened to the philosophers, alchemists, or heroic scientists of the Renaissance. In Goltzius's print, which was so popular it was reprinted as late as the 19th century, the central male figure is Demogorgon, the omnipotent father of all gods. Although Demogorgon was feared as the "Demon-gorgon," a terror who could unleash his primordial power, Goltzius portrays the god as a wizened and magical force who uses his power to give form to the world.

Ren Renfa's horse images are elegant in appearance and vigorous in spirit. His work attracted not only Chinese scholars but also the Mongols at the imperial court. Inspired by the contemporary scholarly interest in restoring a sense of antiquity in art—an artistic direction led by Zhao Mengfu that exerted a great impact in the Yuan art scene—Ren Renfa, like Zhao Mengfu, modeled his depictions of horses after the Song master Li Gonglin. Another key style component that Ren introduced to this genre was a revival of the Tang classical tradition. The refined color treatment of the horses as seen here was derived from the Tang master Han Gan.

This figure of the Buddha is characterized by a round face and thick, heavy eyebrows that join the nose to form a king of 'T.' Acquired in Lopburi, it was very likely made there.
This image is interesting in large part becasue of the light it appears to shed on the development of the walking Buddha. Originally attached to a backplate or frame, it might have been part of an altarpiece in which lesser images flank a central one. The walking Budha seems to be exemplifying a posture rather than illustrating a particular episode in the Buddha's life.

A priest and two attendants perform ceremonies for the deceased. Originally, there probably existed (to the left) certain offerings. It is an exact copy of a scene in the Temple of Deir el Bahari made some seven centuries earlier where the figures are reversed.
