Brief Description
A wide body of water, distant mountains, and colorful trees in a watercolor landscape
Detailed Description
This horizontal watercolor painting depicts a landscape. In the background, a series of soft, undulating mountains in light green and pale blue hues rise under a light, hazy sky. Below the mountains, a wide body of water, colored in muted browns and tans, stretches across the midground. A narrow strip of land, with hints of green and brown, separates the water from the distant mountains. In the foreground, on the right side, a large, dark gray rock formation with brown undertones is visible. To its left, a cluster of trees has foliage in shades of red, orange, and dark green. Further to the left, another group of trees features leaves in yellow, light green, and some reddish tones. Several small, dark birds are perched or flying among the branches of these trees. The ground beneath the trees and rocks is covered in light green and brown vegetation. Various inscriptions and red seals are present on the painting. In the upper right corner, vertical text reads "甲午十月朔畫" and "項令注", accompanied by a square red seal. In the upper left, a longer vertical inscription reads "鼻子見而喜之情" "酬俞老枝何處管" "到山嵐紅到樹兩" "寒鴉噪晚眠無人" "指點斜陽路", next to a large rectangular red seal. In the lower left, more vertical text states "山丹十二情過過" "橋所感" "主人八題中首見" "畫也應景可予二" "吳" "為贈全不厭過" "通題也", with two smaller red seals below it. A small square red seal is also visible in the lower right corner.
