Detailed Description
An ink and watercolor painting on light brown paper depicts a scene with a boat, a flaming basket, a bird, and calligraphic text. The paper has a slightly mottled texture. In the upper left and upper center, black calligraphic text is written vertically and horizontally. In the upper right corner, a small red square seal with black characters is visible. A light brown boat, angled from the lower left towards the center, has a dark line along its upper edge and several small dark marks along its side. Extending from the boat is a thin, dark pole, from which a black woven basket hangs. The basket contains red and orange flames that rise upwards. Below the boat and basket, light blue-gray concentric circles depict water. A small, dark, bird-like creature with a long neck and a small object in its beak is depicted in the water, positioned slightly to the right of the boat's bow. To the right of the water, a light brown landmass rises, with a cluster of small red flowers and green stems growing on its side.
