The fan page has its own title: “The flowers pool is locked with spring clouds, and the fog is covered with misty haze. So is the meaning of the Weibei River East. Looking back on the high sky, I think more of you. In the first winter evening, Xie Shichen wrote the sunset cloud scene and wrote poems.” Seal “Sizhong” and other seals
“Jiachen” is the 23rd year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1544), and Xie Shichen was 58 years old
The picture depicts the misty scenery of Baihua Lake in the twilight. This picture is a freehand brushwork in Chinese ink. It can be written freely with the pen. It is vigorous and free. The use of ink is rich in changes and contrasts with shades. The composition of the picture corresponds to the reality, and the layers between the objects are clear and integrated. The clouds and mists that cross the middle of the painting fan from right to left, with their ethereal and changeable features, not only increase the sense of height and depth of the picture, but also enliven the charm of the whole picture and make it have a flowing air
