Detailed Description
The image, rendered primarily in muted tones of gray, light blue, and pale green, shows multiple figures interacting with large vessels. A light blue border frames the composition, which is divided into two main sections. In the upper half, two figures are seated on a raised platform or ground, facing each other. They appear to be engaged with smaller, indistinct objects or vessels positioned between them. The background behind them is a light, hazy wash, suggesting a distant landscape or open space with faint outlines of structures. A prominent vertical line on the left side separates the foreground from the background. In the lower half, three figures are arranged around a large, light-colored, ovoid vase that rests on a round, pedestal-like table. To the left of the vase, a figure kneels or sits, looking towards the vase. To the right and slightly in front of the vase, another figure is seated on the ground, pulling a rope that extends from the base of the table or vase. This figure wears a patterned garment. Further to the right, a third figure sits, looking towards the activity. Several smaller, indistinct vessels or objects are scattered on the ground around the figures in the lower section. The figures' garments show subtle hints of pale green and gray. In the lower right corner, two characters, "催全", appear above a red square seal.
