Exhibition Label: "Qiu Anxiong: New Book of Mountains and Seas," Feb-2010, Kris Ercums Inscription: There is a beast in the Western lands with a body like a bull with no feet. Its head is connected directly to its back and its back is covered in armored scales. It moves rapidly on its stomach, and its straight snout erupts fire. It is called the Tank.
