Detailed Description
The image features a floral arrangement and calligraphic text on a light brown background. On the right, a dark, woven basket holds a bouquet of flowers. The bouquet includes several bell-shaped blossoms in muted blue, along with clusters of white and light pink flowers. Green leaves and stems are interspersed throughout the arrangement. The basket is dark brown or black, displaying a visible woven pattern of intersecting lines. Below the flowers and to the right of the basket, a vertical line of dark script is present, followed by a small red square seal. The left half of the image contains a large section of dark, flowing script, arranged vertically in multiple lines. The script is rendered with thick, expressive brushstrokes. The background is a uniform light brown or tan, showing subtle variations in tone and texture. The edges of the image appear slightly darker, forming a subtle border.
