About the piece
Created in 1637 by Shao Mi, a prominent painter of the late Ming period, this work is a quintessential example of literati art. It depicts a serene moment where figures gather by gnarled pine trees along a misty shoreline, while the upper two-thirds of the composition are dedicated to poetic inscriptions that complement the visual narrative.
