Detailed Description
A vertical scroll features a single, portly figure in the lower half, slightly right of center, against a plain, light-colored background. The man is bald with a round face, a small beard, and his mouth is curved upwards as he looks upward. His bare chest and belly are visible beneath loose, flowing robes, rendered in light tones with dark ink outlines. A large, light-colored sack is slung over his left shoulder, and he holds a dark staff diagonally across his body with both hands. In the upper left portion of the scroll, multiple lines of dark, vertical calligraphy are present. Below the calligraphy, a red circular seal is visible. Another smaller, rectangular red seal is located in the lower left corner. The central artwork is framed by a decorative border of greenish-blue fabric with a subtle patterned design and thin gold accents.
