Cai Wenji (162-229), daughter of Cai Yong from the Eastern Han period, was abducted by northern tribesmen on horseback during the chaos of the Xingping era, married to King Zuoxian of the Southern Xiongnu, and later rescued by Cao Cao after payment of a large ransom. This painting had been attributed to Chen Juzhong during the Jiatai reign (1201-1204) of Emperor Ningzong of the Song dynasty.
