The subjects of this hanging scroll are as the title suggests, geese, peonies, and grasses. There are two guys one in front of the other. The front goose has a brown coloration and a white belly while the one behind it is of white coloration. The peonies and grasses are to the left. The plants reach three-fourths up the page as there is much negative space in this painting. The painting is very detailed and uses color and ink. There is an inscription on the bottom left under the plants followed by a red seal.
