Brief Description
Circular landscape with a waterfall, mountains, water, bamboo, and two figures
Detailed Description
This circular image depicts a landscape in tones of brown, grey, and black. In the lower left, a dense grove of bamboo trees with slender trunks and leafy branches rises behind a rocky outcrop. On this outcrop, two figures are visible. A larger figure, with a long beard, is seated on a dark rock, facing towards the right. To their right, a smaller figure stands, holding a staff, and appears to be facing the seated figure. A body of water stretches across the middle of the composition, separating the foreground from the background. On the right side, a steep, dark mountain or cliff face features a prominent waterfall cascading down its side into the water below. The mountain slopes are dotted with sparse, dark vegetation. In the far background, lighter, hazy mountain peaks are faintly visible. Two red seals are present in the upper right corner.
