The painting by Bi Chang depicts a serene landscape with a body of water. On the left side, a group of trees with long, curved branches lean over the water's edge. A small bridge extends from the land into the water, accompanied by a few boats on the water, with two of them featuring people. In the background, more trees are visible on the opposite shore. The bottom right corner features another cluster of trees with similar curved branches. The entire scene is rendered in black ink on a brown background.
