Unidentified artist

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image features a painting or drawing of plants and vegetables on a beige background with a darker beige border. The artwork depicts several long, thin leaves and two plants, one with a single stem and another with three stems. The plant on the left has long, slender leaves and a bulbous base with roots. A smaller plant with white flowers and thin leaves is positioned to the right. Black Chinese characters are written throughout the top and left side. Two red stamps are present: one square on the bottom left and another on the right side. The artwork fills most of the frame.
