An old man, another figure, and a crane under a large pine tree, with mountains
Detailed Description
A vertical painting depicts a mountainous landscape with figures under a large pine tree, rendered in muted tones of brown, ochre, and dark green. In the upper left, tall, craggy mountains rise, with faint, misty peaks visible in the distance. A thin, light streak on the left mountain face suggests a waterfall. The upper right portion of the painting is dominated by a hazy, light brown sky. A large, gnarled pine tree with dark green needles originates from the upper left, its thick, twisted trunk curving downwards and to the right, then branching out across the mid-ground. Its branches are laden with dark foliage and some hanging, moss-like elements. Beneath the pine tree, in the lower center, an old man with a bald head and a long beard sits on a rock, facing right. He wears a light-colored robe and holds a small, indistinct object. To his right, another figure stands, also in a light robe, holding a staff or similar object. Next to this figure, a white crane with dark wing tips stands on one leg, looking towards the old man. The immediate foreground features dark, jagged rocks and patches of green foliage, while the ground around the figures is a lighter, sandy brown. The composition places the figures and the large pine tree in the lower half, framed by the towering mountains on the left and an expansive sky on the right.
