Splashed-Ink Landscape

Bokushō Shūshō

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A long, narrow painting on beige paper depicts a landscape. A black and gold border runs along the top and bottom edges. The painting shows a small figure standing on a path winding through a tree-lined hillside. A tall, jagged mountain rises behind on the right. The painting uses gray and black ink. A red seal is in the bottom-right corner.
