An album leaf in muted tones depicts a panoramic view of a misty river landscape. Dark dashes and soft brushstrokes convey a gnarled tree to our left and a willow leaning over a boat and briefly portrayed figure on the right. Beyond the water, rounded mountains are shrouded in haze, cut through by a distant channel and thin bridge. Chinese calligraphy and a red seal occupy the upper left corner against the silk background.
