Physical DescriptionThis painting shows an Autumn mountain landscape with a large river. The mountains that take up most of the painting are dotted with red-leafed trees and are slightly obscured by clouds or fog. There is a path that starts from the left and makes its way across the painting until the continuation is lost in the middle. Underneath the mountain range is a large light blue river. There is a three-lined horizontal inscription on the upper left with the top line being the longest and the bottom line as the shortest. There are two red seals placed vertically in line on the left of the inscription.
