About the piece

Created in 1707 by the renowned Qing dynasty artist Wang Yuanqi, this work pays homage to the 'dry brush' technique of the Yuan master Ni Zan. The composition features rhythmic mountain peaks, delicate groves of trees, and quiet dwellings rendered with a sophisticated, muted color palette that creates an atmosphere of scholarly contemplation.
