A circular painting on beige-colored paper with a man in traditional Chinese clothing sitting by a pond with lily pads and lotus flowers. The man is on the right side of the painting and is sitting on the ground with his knees bent. He has a mustache and goatee and his hair pulled back into a bun. He is wearing a long robe and appears to be looking at the flowers. There are several large lily pads floating on the water in the pond, which is under a bridge. There are also several lines of Chinese calligraphy in the top left corner, and two red stamps, one in the top left and one in the bottom right. A gray and black color palette is at the bottom.
