The painting "Drinking in the Moonlight" by Ma Yuan depicts a man sitting on a rocky outcropping, wearing a long white robe. He sits with his back to the viewer, looking left. His right leg is bent, and his right arm rests on his knee. A large tree with bare branches grows from a rocky slope to the right of the man. The tree's trunk is thick and gnarled, with a few branches extending outwards. A rectangular object sits at the base of the tree. The background features a mountainous landscape with additional trees and rocks. The painting is rendered in muted colors, with shades of brown, gray, and black dominating the scene. Two red seals are visible in the top-left and bottom-right corners of the painting. The artwork is set against a beige background.
