A horizontally oriented six-panel screen depicts a golden mountain landscape in ink and color. At our left, hunters on horseback lead dogs through a jagged pass. Centrally, a large bird soars over a valley and gnarled pines. To our right, a crowd gathers at a campsite beneath a wide canopy. Muted greens and reds accent the jagged brown peaks, all shimmering against a metallic gold background.
