Brief Description
An expansive landscape painting with a winding river, large lake, green hills, and small settlements
Detailed Description
A wide, horizontal painting shows an expansive landscape from an elevated perspective. A broad, light brown, serpentine river flows from the left edge to the right, occupying the upper portion of the scene. Its banks are lined with light green land and small clusters of dark green trees or low hills. Several small settlements, depicted as groups of tiny buildings, are visible along the river's curves. Below the river, the landscape consists of light green and tan ground. In the lower right, a large, irregular body of water, similar in color to the river but wider, occupies a significant area, resembling a lake or bay. Its shores are also dotted with small settlements and dark green vegetation. Numerous rounded, dark green hills or mountains are scattered across the entire landscape, particularly in the upper left, lower left, and along the edges of the large body of water in the lower right. Faint, light-colored lines suggest paths or roads connecting some of the settlements.
