Brief Description

Ink drawing of an elderly man with an elongated head, long white beard, staff, and surrounding text

Detailed Description

The artwork is a vertical scroll featuring an ink drawing of an elderly man and handwritten text on a light beige background. The top section contains several columns of black handwritten text, rendered in a flowing script. Below this text, a central figure of an elderly man is depicted in black and gray ink washes. He has a very tall, elongated head and a long, flowing white beard that extends down to his lap. His face features a slight upturn at the corners of the mouth and small, dark eyes. He appears to be seated, wearing loose robes, with his right hand holding a gnarled staff that extends upwards. Behind his head is a large, semicircular, fan-like or shell-like structure with radiating lines. Below the figure, a smaller section of black handwritten text is visible. The entire composition is framed by narrow, dark patterned borders at the very top and bottom.
