Watercolor painting of a vine with large dark green and smaller red-orange leaves, and black calligraphy
Detailed Description
A watercolor painting on a light, cream-colored background features a vine with large and small leaves, accompanied by black calligraphy. On the left side, a vine descends vertically, characterized by two prominent, large, dark green leaves with irregular, somewhat rounded shapes. These large leaves exhibit a textured surface with variations in color, including shades of dark green and brown. Below and around these larger leaves, numerous smaller, rounded or lobed leaves are depicted in vibrant shades of red and orange, with occasional touches of green. These smaller leaves are attached to thin, light-colored stems that also run vertically. The leaves are arranged in a cascading formation. On the right side of the painting, several columns of black, brush-stroke calligraphy are arranged vertically. The text reads: "松風ちふを 我秋手 ぬ 善七紅葉". In the bottom left corner, beneath the vine, there is a smaller block of calligraphy that reads "善七 紅葉", directly below which is a square red seal impression.
