Brief Description
Ink wash landscape on a fan with a boatman, willow tree, and distant mountains
Detailed Description
A fan-shaped ink wash painting on light brown paper shows a landscape. On the left, a large, bare willow tree with drooping branches stands prominently, flanked by smaller trees and dark, jagged rock formations at the water's edge. A body of water, likely a river or lake, extends across the middle ground. A small, flat-bottomed boat with a single figure seated in the middle is positioned near the left bank, facing towards the right. The immediate foreground bank is lined with tall, thin grasses or reeds rendered with fine brushstrokes. In the distance, on the far bank, are dark, undulating hills or mountains. The upper right quadrant of the fan contains several columns of vertical calligraphic text written in black ink, followed by a square red seal impression. The entire scene is rendered in varying shades of black and grey ink on the light brown paper.
