Brief Description
A panoramic ink painting of a vast, rugged mountain range with peaks, valleys, and buildings
Detailed Description
This long, horizontal ink painting depicts an expansive, rugged mountain range. The painting is rendered in various shades of gray and black ink on a light beige paper, creating a panoramic view that stretches across the entire composition. In the foreground, a series of gently rolling, rounded hills are depicted with lighter ink washes. As the landscape recedes, the mountains become progressively taller, more dramatic, and sharply defined, filling the midground and background. Numerous jagged peaks and steep ridges rise prominently, characterized by intricate lines and varying ink densities that convey depth and texture. Some peaks are slender and pointed, while others are broader and more massive. Throughout the mountainous terrain, subtle indications of vegetation are present, with clusters of small dots and fine lines suggesting trees or foliage on the slopes and along the ridges. Several small, architectural structures, possibly buildings or temples, are nestled within the valleys and on the lower mountain slopes, particularly visible in the left and right sections of the painting. These structures are rendered with delicate lines, integrating them into the natural environment. The painting depicts a vast natural landscape. In the upper right portion of the painting, two distinct blocks of vertical text are visible, written in black ink. Below these texts, several red square seals are present. The text in the right block reads: 金剛全圖 겸재 정선 갑인년 구월 초하루 그리다. The text in the left block reads: 정선 인 정선 인 정선 인 정선 인.
