A hanging scroll in black and gray ink depicts a towering, craggy mountain textured with dense dabs of foliage. Below, two minimalist figures sit on a thin bridge spanning a small stream. To the left, a thatched hut nestles among pine trees, while buildings huddle against the slopes on the right. In the upper right, distant boats float on water beside vertical calligraphy and two red seals.
