Brief Description
Open book page showing calligraphic text on the left and an ink landscape on the right
Detailed Description
The image displays an open book page with two rectangular panels, set against a light off-white background. Both panels are on light brown paper. The left panel is filled with columns of dense black calligraphic text, written vertically from right to left. Two square red seals are stamped over the text towards the bottom left, one positioned above the other. A smaller, rectangular red seal is visible near the top right of the text block. The right panel features an ink wash landscape painting. In the upper right, a prominent, craggy mountain or cliff face rises, adorned with numerous small, dark trees and a small, simple building with a peaked roof nestled into its side. Below this, a body of water, possibly a lake or bay, stretches across the middle ground, with several smaller, rounded rocks or islands dotting the water near the shore. In the lower left, a cluster of tall, slender trees with sparse, dark foliage stands on a lower landmass. Another small, simple building is partially visible behind these trees. The foreground depicts a rocky shoreline. The painting is rendered in various shades of black ink, creating a sense of depth and texture. In the upper left corner of this panel, several lines of black calligraphic text read "雨小舟" and "百年中秋". Below this text, a square red seal is stamped.
