白马寺是佛教传入中国后由官方营造的第一座寺院，在我国青海，河南，江西，四川等地均有分布。
在这幅作品中，大朴运用意象表现手法描绘，强调主观情绪上的表现。画家身处青海等佛教圣地，深深受到佛文化的熏陶，创作了许多以佛教为主题的作品，表现佛教文化的神圣。
作品是大朴近期风格的代表，主要以抽象表现主义为主，注重意象表现。笔触娴熟，主要以棕红色调为主，色泽丰润。
White Horse Temple (Fat Jong Si) is a Buddhist complex carved into the end of a mountain range (see aerial photos on the link page), located in Ping'an County of Qinghai Province, on the Tibetan Plateau. In Dapu's painting, we also see the white dagoba dome, which is typical of Tibetan Buddhist temple complexes, in the foreground. Monks in red robes are seen wandering throughout the complex.

The style is the more sophisticated abstract impressionist style that Dapu has grown into, lately. The colors are rich with the reddish-browns and the tans and yellows, it is a beautiful painting of one of Dapu's favorite topics: the Buddhist temples in Qinghai.
