Brief Description
A fan-shaped image shows a snowy landscape with bamboo, a woven structure, and colorful decorative borders.
Detailed Description
The image is presented within a fan shape, wider than it is tall, with curved top and bottom edges. The central area features a landscape. In the middle, a large area of white, textured material appears to be snow, covering the lower half of this central section. Several slender green bamboo shoots emerge from this white material in the upper left. To the left of the bamboo, a light-colored, rectangular, woven structure, possibly a basket or fence, is partially covered by the white material. This structure contains multiple lines of small, dark, vertical text. Above the white material, a wavy, dark blue band stretches across the fan. The top and bottom edges of the central landscape are bordered by wide bands of gold, which are divided by thin vertical lines. Above the top gold band, a red, cloud-like or wavy pattern with a distressed, cracked texture appears on either side of the fan's upper curve.
