Two horses move through a landscape with a large gnarled tree, dark rocks, and vertical calligraphy
Detailed Description
The vertical ink wash painting depicts a landscape scene with two horses, a large tree, and rocks. A tall, gnarled tree with a thick, textured trunk and branches dominates the left side of the composition, extending from the bottom edge to near the top. Its branches are sparsely covered with needle-like foliage, some rendered in dark ink and others with a reddish-brown tint. The tree's trunk has several dark, hollowed-out sections. In the middle ground, to the right of the tree, two horses are depicted in motion. The upper horse is dark gray or black, with a flowing white mane and tail, and appears to be galloping with its front legs lifted. Below and slightly to the left, a lighter-colored horse, possibly white or light gray, also moves forward with its mane and tail flowing. Both horses are rendered with visible musculature and dynamic poses. In the bottom right corner, a cluster of dark, layered rocks with a textured surface rests on the ground. The ground itself is lightly shaded, suggesting uneven terrain. Along the far right edge of the painting, vertical lines of black calligraphy are present, followed by two small red square seals near the bottom.
