Detailed Description
A horizontal scroll painting on a light tan background depicts a scene with three figures on an ornate cart pulled by a deer, set within a natural landscape. In the center, a bearded man with a dark cap and a long, light yellow robe sits in the cart, holding a small, light-colored object in his right hand. To his left, a woman in a light blue and white robe sits facing him. To his right, a second woman in a light green robe stands or sits slightly behind him, looking downwards. The cart itself is elaborately decorated with intricate patterns and features a canopy of green foliage above the man. It is pulled by a brown deer with prominent antlers, facing towards the right. The deer wears a colorful harness adorned with blue, red, and green elements. The landscape behind the figures includes rolling hills in muted tones and a tree with white blossoms in the upper right. To the left of the cart, large, gnarled trees with sparse green foliage and exposed roots dominate the upper and middle ground. Further left and lower, rocky outcrops are visible, with delicate pink flowers blooming among them. The ground throughout the painting is a light tan, with subtle washes of green suggesting distant terrain. In the upper right corner, a vertical column of red and black characters is visible.
