Landscape Album in Various Styles: Pleasure in a Mountain Brook

Zha Shibiao

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts a serene scene. A small white boat with a roofed canopy and two people is on a body of water. The boat is on the left side. The person sitting in the front is fishing. The person sitting in the back plays a stringed instrument. The boat's roof is tiled and has a curved eave. A tree with long, drooping branches is on the right side. A red stamp is in the bottom left corner. A column of Chinese characters runs vertically along the right edge. A red stamp is near the bottom of the column. The background features a cloudy sky. The shore has several trees and rocks. The scene appears to be rendered in black ink and color on paper.
