Watching the Deer by a Pine Shaded Stream

Ma Yuan

Cleveland Museum of Art

A painting on fabric or paper depicts a man and a deer by a stream. The background shows a brown sky with a few clouds and a distant mountain. The man sits on a low platform facing away from the viewer toward the stream. He wears a loose white robe and has a hat on his head. The stream runs horizontally across the center of the painting and has a small wooden bridge. A pine tree grows on the right side. Two red stamps are on the left side of the painting. The border around the painting is beige. The subject's clothing and surroundings suggest this is an older painting.
