About the piece

Created around 1690 by the master Mei Qing, this album leaf belongs to a series of landscapes executed in the styles of previous masters. The work demonstrates the sparse composition and delicate ink washes characteristic of the Anhui school, using minimal detail to evoke a profound sense of vastness and quiet contemplation.
