Zhou Fang was a Chinese painter during the
Tang dynasty, living in the capital of
Chang'an (modern
Xi'an) during the 8th century. He came from a noble background and this was reflected in his works. He personally painted for the emperor and the themes of his artwork covered religious subjects and everyday life. This
ink-and-color-on-silk painting, titled
Court Ladies Playing Double-sixes, measures 30.5 cm × 69.1 cm (12.0 in × 27.2 in) and depicts members of the emperor's household playing the board game
liubo. It now hangs in the
Freer Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.
