Although the size of this volume is small, the strokes and ink are exquisite. Dong Qichang, who only wrote the book but didn’t seal it, was the proud pen he kept and collected on that day. There are two postscripts of Wang Shimin and Da Chongguang at the back of the book. It can be seen from Wang Shimin’s postscript that this book is his old collection and was later given to Wang Hui. The best work has been written in the second postscript, The postscript is specially recorded:
“Wen Min wrote the remains of the mountains and waters in the small book of short paper, with the ink and ink in full swing, and the smoke and clouds disappearing, which seems to have a ten-millie momentum. It is really simple and elegant. I have bought and kept it for more than 20 years. Brother Shishigu went to the small room and saw it with a sigh, so I didn’t give it up. Not only the high mountains and flowing water can be appreciated, but its charm is also similar. The Wu Shen Xia Wang Shimin question.”
“Every time Wen Min passes through the capital, he will be housed in the Zhang’s Garden Pavilion. He has made the most small paintings. In the rest of the time, he borrowed from his friends and loved his inscriptions and postscripts. He could not bear to let go of them. Even Wen Min was very precious on that day. This book of ink is very simple and quiet. It is very similar to the Zhang’s collection. There is no reason why the two dukes of Yanke and Shigu compete for the prize. The foreign historians on the river have learned it in Xinman.”
