A horizontal painting of mountains, trees, and water, with small buildings and calligraphic text
Detailed Description
This horizontal painting features a panoramic view of mountains, trees, and water. The color palette primarily consists of various shades of green, brown, and gray for the landforms, with touches of light blue for distant peaks and a cream-colored background. On the far left, a cluster of large, textured mountains rises, covered in dense green foliage and dotted with individual trees. A small, white building with a red roof is nestled among the trees on a lower slope. Moving towards the center, the landscape opens into a wide valley or body of water, depicted in lighter, muted tones, with scattered trees along its edges. Further to the right, more mountains emerge, some with distinct blue-tinted peaks, and clusters of dark green trees. In the lower right corner, a few small, simple structures with brown roofs are visible near the water's edge. The upper right quadrant of the painting contains several columns of black calligraphic text and two red seal impressions, positioned against the light background.
