This picture shows the snow scenery of the cold river in the south of the Yangtze River. The houses in the mountain village are covered with snow, and the cold is striking. The two talked indoors. In the picture, Zhongshanluan uses a small axe to crack and a short strip of bare pen to express the hard, steep and moist texture of the mountain rocks. The sky and water are slightly tinted with light ink to set off the snowy white and chilly atmosphere. The composition adopts the “edge and corner” local view method. The painting is vigorous and profound, bold and elegant.
