Brief Description
Two vertical scrolls: one with black calligraphic text, the other a monochromatic ink landscape
Detailed Description
The artwork consists of two vertical hanging scrolls, presented side-by-side against a dark, plain background. Each scroll features a top and bottom section of plain, light brown fabric. In the middle, a wider band of reddish-brown fabric with a subtle, repeating geometric pattern separates the plain sections. Both scrolls have a rectangular panel mounted within this patterned band. The left scroll's central panel is a light cream-colored sheet of paper filled with multiple columns of black calligraphic text, written vertically from right to left. Several red square seals are visible, some integrated within the text and others positioned below the main body of writing. The right scroll's central panel displays a monochromatic ink wash landscape painting on a light cream-colored sheet. The painting depicts a village composed of numerous small, simple structures with dark roofs, clustered in the middle ground. Behind the village, a dense mass of dark, stylized trees rises, forming a backdrop. The foreground shows a flat expanse, possibly water or land, with a faint, dark line suggesting a path or bridge leading towards the village. The entire scene is rendered in shades of black and gray ink. In the upper right corner of this painting, a small amount of black text and a red square seal are visible.
