Detailed Description
This landscape painting depicts mountains, water, trees, and a building. The upper portion of the artwork is dominated by large, rounded mountains, painted in soft shades of gray and light brown, with darker ink outlines defining their forms. A band of lighter, misty atmosphere separates the lower parts of the mountains from the middle ground. In the middle ground, a body of water, possibly a river or lake, flows horizontally across the canvas. On the left side of the water, a prominent rocky outcrop supports several trees. These trees have brown trunks and sparse green foliage, with one tree featuring a distinctive gnarled branch that curves downwards. Further to the right, a small, arched bridge, rendered in light brown and gray, spans the water. On the right side of the water, another rocky formation rises, upon which a building with a dark roof and light-colored walls is situated, partially obscured by a few green-foliaged trees. The foreground consists of more rocky terrain and gentle slopes, continuing the muted color palette of grays and light browns. In the upper left corner of the painting, there is a vertical inscription in black ink. From right to left, the first line reads "春暮雲", the second line reads "國宗者仁見", and the third line reads "沈周林園". Below and to the left of this text, two red square seals are visible, one above the other. The upper seal contains characters that appear to be "沈周", and the lower seal contains characters that appear to be "林園".
