Detailed Description
This vertical artwork depicts a standing man against a plain, light tan background. The man is positioned centrally, facing slightly towards the viewer's right, with his gaze directed forward. He wears a dark green, long-sleeved robe with a high collar, cinched at the waist by a dark blue belt adorned with gold-colored, rectangular buckles. On his head is a dark, round hat featuring a small red finial on top and a long, flat, green plume extending horizontally backward from the left side, which has a circular blue and gold motif. The man has a light complexion, a mustache, and a small goatee. In his right hand, he holds a light-colored, strung bow with decorative gold and red accents. Behind his right shoulder, a quiver filled with arrows is visible, featuring red and white fletching. A sword, with a green scabbard and a gold-colored hilt, hangs from his left hip, partially concealed by his robe. He wears dark, possibly black, boots. The light tan background has subtle patterned borders along the left and right edges, and a wider, patterned border at the bottom. At the top of the artwork, a rectangular section of aged, slightly darker tan paper displays multiple columns of vertical script in black ink, with some sections appearing in a different script or style.
