The scroll on which this recent reproduction is modeled can be seen here: https://scrolls.uchicago.edu/scroll/spring-festival-along-river

Here is an interesting article about the painting, which points out that there are a lot of basic things about it that we still don't know, even though many Chinese consider it one of their best: https://history.yale.edu/sites/default/files/files/Hansen-Beijing%20Qingming%20Scroll.pdf
