Here we have what looks like an everyday scene of commoners in nature or perhaps they are high ranking officials of the sacred temples that are crossing a bridge.

Chinese reliefs have a diverse range of themes, depicting mythical, spiritual beings, as well as depictions images of people, such as the king and queen, princes, priests, courtiers, soldiers, servants, and commoners. These bas-relief sculptures have served as a reference for historians in the study of ancient Chinese civilizations.
