You could almost see Ian Heath using this particular 'original' for inspiration.
I wonder if he did. :-\

Almost certainly!
Great pictures.
I have added a link to a site with all the surviving scroll sections. Sections 6, 7 & 8 of the 'Guided View' tab shows that the 3 Mongol soldiers, the bursting shell, & the tree, were latter additions to the 13th century scroll. Making the Mongol Infantry costume doubtful.

Is anyone else having problems opening the links?
No, all opened easily. :-\
