Detailed Description
The circular painting depicts a bearded man seated on a light-colored wooden platform that extends over water. The man, positioned slightly right of center, faces forward with his head turned slightly to the right. He has dark hair tied back and a dark beard. He wears a flowing, light-colored robe, with his left knee raised and his left arm resting on it. In his left hand, he holds a round, light-colored fan. His right arm is also bent, resting on his right knee. His feet, wearing dark shoes, are visible beneath his robe. The wooden platform, supported by vertical posts, extends diagonally from the lower right towards the upper left. Below the platform, the pale blue-grey water is dotted with numerous small, round, green leaves floating on the water. To the left of the man, large, muted green lotus leaves and several pale yellow-white lotus flowers emerge from the water. Behind the man, on the right side of the platform, are vertical stalks of light green foliage. The background is a plain, light beige. In the upper left quadrant, dark vertical script is visible, followed by two square red seals. A single square red seal is also present in the lower right quadrant.
