Landscape

Zhai Dakun

Cleveland Museum of Art

Landscape by Zhai Dakun. A traditional Chinese ink painting on paper. The artwork depicts a rugged, mountainous landscape. The mountains are rendered in shades of brown, with darker tones used for shadows and lighter tones for highlights. The mountains vary in shape and size, with some featuring steep cliffs and others rounded tops. Trees and bushes are scattered across the mountains, adding depth to the scene. A group of Chinese characters are written in black ink at the top left corner. The overall color palette is subdued, with the brown paper serving as the background.
