Brief Description
A fan-shaped painting depicts a large pink flower, a smaller bloom, green leaves, and branches
Detailed Description
The artwork is a fan-shaped painting, wider at the top and narrowing towards the bottom, with a light, off-white background. Faint vertical lines are visible across the background. The central focus is a cluster of flowering plants with green leaves and brown branches. On the right, a large, full pink flower features multiple layers of petals and a small yellow center. To its left, a smaller, simpler pink bloom with fewer petals is depicted on a slender stem, rising above a cluster of green leaves. Several dark green leaves are scattered around the base of both flowers, with some lighter green accents. Brown branches extend from the lower center, with small pink buds visible on some of the thinner twigs. In the upper right quadrant, vertical black text is present, followed by a small, square red seal stamp at the bottom right of the text. The overall composition fills the lower two-thirds of the fan shape.
