Brief Description
Muted landscape with hazy mountains, a wide river, boats, and trees on a rocky shore
Detailed Description
A vertical landscape is depicted in a muted palette of browns, grays, and subtle greens, framed by decorative borders. The central painted area is a rectangular panel. Above and below this panel are wide bands of gold-colored fabric, patterned with repeating circular motifs in a slightly darker, reddish-brown hue. Immediately bordering the painted panel, both top and bottom, are narrower bands featuring intricate teal-green scrollwork patterns on a light brown background. The landscape shows a hazy scene. In the distant background, a series of mountains rises, their peaks softly defined and partially obscured by atmospheric mist, rendered in light gray washes. The middle ground features a wide expanse of water, likely a river or lake, stretching horizontally across the scene. Several small boats are scattered across the water; some appear to be simple skiffs, while others have a single mast. Along the far bank of the water, faint outlines of land and small structures are visible, along with what appears to be a long, low bridge or pier extending into the water. In the foreground, on the left side, a prominent rocky hill or island is covered with several tall, dark-trunked trees, possibly pines, with their branches extending horizontally. Below this hill, on the left bank, are faint indications of small, low-lying buildings or huts.
