The hanging scroll depicts a river and mountains. The composition appears to be less three-dimensional with the scenery laying out on the page almost on top of each component. The river snakes through the bottom third of the painting with the mountains and land all throughout. There appear to be roofed buildings towards the bottom of the painting and what seems to be a tall tower-like structure, perhaps a kiln? There is a signature of the artist on the upper right followed by a red seal.
