Landscape

Wang Tingru

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Landscape by Wang Tingru. A semi-circular painting on a beige background. Darker beige and brown mountain and rock formations dominate the right half. The left half has a few trees with dark trunks and branches and light-colored leaves. Gray and blueish clouds are behind and among the mountains. A small red building with a curved roof is on the left. Chinese characters are written across the top. A small ruler-like rectangle with a gradient from black to white and numbers along the bottom edge is below the painting.
