Landscape by Maejima Sōyū, a serene Asian-style landscape painting on aged paper, depicts a mountainous scene with tall, rocky cliffs and sparse trees. The central area features a body of water with a small wooden gazebo-like structure on the shore. A large tree leans over the structure, partially obscuring it. In the background, a full moon is visible. The painting is bordered by a dark green frame with a gold floral pattern.
