The image is a landscape drawing by Dai Benxiao. The drawing is on a beige background with a green border. A large, dark gray mountain range dominates the right side. A cliff juts out in the foreground. The left side features a smaller hill with a bare tree. Vertical black Chinese calligraphy runs along the top left, accompanied by two red seals. A third red seal is in the bottom-left corner.
