Did You Know?

The inscription dates this album to summer 1690, shortly after Mei Qing's second trip to Huangshan 黃山 (Mt. Huang or Yellow Mountain).
A horizontal ink painting on cream paper depicts two gnarled pine trees rising on our right and leaning toward our left. Thick, black dabs texture the trunks, supporting clusters of dark, horizontal needles. A column of vertical Chinese calligraphy fills the far left side, accompanied by small red seals. Three additional seals mark the far right edge. Repeated short, vertical strokes form a rocky base and shrubs anchoring the composition.
