Brief Description
Ink painting on a vertical scroll with a flowering branch, faint circular form, and calligraphy
Detailed Description
This vertical ink painting features a dark, gnarled branch with numerous white blossoms against a light gray background. The branch originates from the bottom right, curving upwards and slightly to the left, with several smaller offshoots. The blossoms are small, round, and white, each with a dark center, clustered along the branches. A faint, light gray circular form, appearing as a moon, is positioned in the upper-middle left section of the scroll, partially obscured by a thin branch. In the upper left, two large, dark characters are visible: "漫月". Below these, several vertical lines of smaller, dark calligraphy extend downwards along the left side of the artwork. Two square red seals are stamped below the main body of text on the left. A single square red seal is also present in the bottom right corner of the scroll.
