Detailed Description
A painting depicts a figure seated on rocks in a misty landscape. The overall color palette is muted, dominated by shades of beige, brown, and grey. In the lower-middle section, a bald figure is seated on a light-colored, irregular rock formation. The figure is seen from the back, turned slightly to the right, and wears a loose, brown robe that drapes over their body. Their left arm is visible, and they hold a slender, dark staff that extends upwards behind them. Sparse, dark foliage or branches are visible around the rock formation where the figure sits, and a small, dark bowl-like object rests near their right side. Below and to the right of the seated figure, two dark, angular rock formations rise from the bottom edge of the painted area. The lower half of the painting features a light, hazy ground. Above the figure, a large expanse is filled with swirling, greyish mist or clouds, which gradually fades into the pale, unadorned background at the top. The top and bottom edges of the painted area are bordered by narrow strips of light green fabric with a subtle, repeating pattern.
