A vertically oriented ink and color painting on silk depicts two spotted deer. A large, gnarled tree dominates our right, its textured branches arching across the top. Below, a standing stag with antlers licks its back, while another deer rests on the ground looking upward. The foreground features layered rocks, a small stream, and pink flowers. In the lower right, two red square seals mark the artist's signature.
