The Poet Li Bai & the "Zhuxi Liuyi" Literati at Culai Mountain Peerless Tang Dynasty poet, Li Bai, who famously drowned drunk in the Yangtze River while trying to embrace the moon's watery reflection astride his boat, was immortalized by his friend Du Fu's satirical poem Yinzhong Baxian (8 Immortals of the Wine Cup - in reality, Li Bai, cavorting with his Imperial & noble literati friends). Imbibement was Li Bai's method of poetic inspiration, and the reference upon this vessel meant for alcohol consumption is no accident, making it the quintessential Chinese Export Silver drinking vessel of this type.

The literati are surrounded by auspicious symbols of immortality, from lingzhi-covered ancient trees to flying cranes to mist-encircled heights replete with pagodas, bamboo, and viewing stones. The foreground bamboo stream with floating waterfowl & lotus blossoms identifies Li Bai's real-world home in Zhuxi (which means "Bamboo Stream") at Culai Mountain (in Shandong).
