About the piece

Created in 1677 by the artist Wang Gai, this exquisite album leaf captures the contemplative spirit of traditional Chinese literati painting. A solitary figure sits within a simple thatched pavilion, sheltered by the rhythmic, gnarled branches of a willow tree. The artist uses delicate ink washes and vast negative space to suggest a misty, expansive river scene, evoking a sense of profound stillness.
