Detailed Description
This monochrome ink drawing depicts a rugged mountainous landscape rendered in varying shades of black ink on a light, uncolored background. Large, textured mountains and hills dominate the composition, rising from the bottom and extending across the right and central portions of the image. Swirling and vertical brushstrokes characterize these landforms, creating a sense of depth and rocky texture. On the lower left slope, several small, simple structures with peaked roofs are nestled, appearing to be houses or huts. Several trees with gnarled trunks and sparse, rounded foliage are scattered across the mountain slopes, particularly on the right and center. Some trees are rendered with darker, denser ink. The foreground and base of the mountains feature rocky terrain, with rounded and angular rocks of various sizes defined by darker ink. A lighter, flatter area at the very bottom suggests a plain or a body of water. Dark ink calligraphic text runs vertically along the upper right edge. Below the text are two stacked square red seals. A smaller, single red seal is also visible near the bottom right.
