Visual Summary

Brief Description

Four-panel screen: a gnarled tree with pink blossoms and dark rocks on a gold background.

Detailed Description

A four-panel screen painting features a large, gnarled tree and rock formations against a uniform gold background that appears to be gold leaf. The tree, painted in dark greens and browns, is prominent, its thick, twisted trunk originating from the lower right panel and sweeping upwards and left across all four panels. Numerous slender branches extend from the main trunk, many bearing small, light pink or white blossoms. On the far left panel, a cluster of red flowers with green leaves emerges from behind a dark, layered rock formation that sits low in the foreground. This rock formation is wide and relatively flat on top. In the lower right quadrant, a group of tall, jagged, dark rock formations rises vertically, with smaller flowering branches growing from their bases and between them. Small, circular, decorative metal fittings are visible at the seam between the two central panels.
