Brief Description
A circular landscape painting with layered mountains, dense trees, a winding stream, and three cranes
Detailed Description
This circular painting depicts a muted landscape scene. In the background, on the left, several layers of dark green and brown mountains rise, their peaks softly outlined against a lighter, faded brown sky. The midground features a winding stream or river, its dark surface reflecting the muted tones of the surroundings. The banks of the stream are rocky and uneven, with patches of ochre and dark green. Dense clusters of trees with dark green foliage are scattered across the midground and foreground, particularly on the right side. A tall, gnarled tree dominates the right midground, its branches extending upwards. Three cranes are visible within the scene. One crane, with a grey body and dark head, is perched high on a branch of the tall tree on the right. Another similar crane is partially obscured by foliage lower down on the right. A third crane stands on the left bank of the stream, near the foreground. The overall color palette is dominated by earthy tones of green, brown, and ochre.
