Detailed Description
Three vertical scroll paintings are displayed side-by-side against a dark background. Each scroll features a central painted panel framed by decorative borders. The top section of each scroll's mounting features a light blue-grey fabric with a subtle pattern. Below this, a wider section of gold-brown fabric displays a repeating leaf or vine pattern. Gold-colored vertical strips hang from the top of each scroll, and red-brown wooden rollers are visible at the bottom. The central painted panels are a light tan color. The left scroll's panel depicts a landscape under a pale yellow full moon in the upper center. Below the moon, a hazy body of water stretches across the middle ground. In the lower left, a cluster of green-topped trees stands on a small landmass. Faint landforms are visible in the distance. Vertical lines of dark text are present in the upper left. The center scroll's panel features a seated figure in the lower half, facing right. The figure wears a dark blue or black robe with a red garment visible underneath and a white head covering. The figure is positioned next to a light-colored, gnarled tree trunk or rock formation on the right. Faint, light-colored branches extend from the upper right. Vertical lines of dark text are in the upper left. The right scroll's panel shows a snowy landscape in the lower half. The ground is predominantly white, with several small, white-covered trees or bushes scattered across it. A fence line or path extends from the lower left towards the center. Faint, light-colored branches extend from the upper right. Vertical lines of dark text are in the upper left.
