Seated man with a beard and black cap, wearing patterned robes, on a light brown ground.
Detailed Description
A rectangular painting on light brown paper depicts a man seated cross-legged, facing slightly to the right. He has light skin, a short black beard, and a small black cap on his head. His eyes are narrow, and his mouth is a thin line. He wears a long-sleeved robe with a light cream background patterned with light green and white circular motifs. The robe has red trim along the edges of the sleeves and the bottom hem. His hands are not visible, tucked within the sleeves. His legs are covered by the robe, which continues the light green and white circular pattern. To the right of the man's head, a small vertical inscription in black characters appears, followed by a red square seal. The central painting is framed by a thin, light border. To the left of the central painting, a vertical panel of light cream paper displays black calligraphic text. The text includes characters such as "危" and "柿". Below some of the text, a faint, light yellow floral motif is visible. To the right of the central painting, another vertical panel of light cream paper appears blank but shows signs of wear and discoloration, with some darker, irregular patches. The entire composition is set against a dark, plain background.
