Brief Description
Horizontal ink wash painting of a misty landscape with undulating mountains, clusters of trees, and small structures
Detailed Description
This horizontal ink wash painting presents a landscape dominated by a range of undulating mountains. The upper two-thirds of the artwork is a light, unpainted or very lightly washed area, appearing to be sky or distant haze. Below this, a band of mist or fog stretches across the mid-ground, partially obscuring the lower slopes of the mountains. The mountains themselves vary in definition; some peaks are rendered with darker, more distinct ink strokes, while others appear lighter and softer, fading into the atmospheric haze. On the far left, in the foreground, a cluster of dark green trees stands, with a few small, light-colored structures, possibly houses, nestled among them or nearby. Further to the right in the foreground, more scattered trees with similar dark foliage are visible, extending across the lower portion of the painting. The ground beneath the trees and structures is a light, muted brown or beige wash. The overall color palette is restricted to shades of blue-gray, dark green, and light brown against the pale background of the paper. On the far right edge, three small, rectangular red seals are vertically stacked.
