The fan page has its own title: “The misty mountains in spring. In the new autumn of Jiaqing, the people of Wumu Mountain are meant to live in the small forest. The bamboo is the first tree.” The seal “Wei Qiao”, the white seal, and the “Ji Mu”, the Zhu seal
The “self” is the fourth year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty (1799), when Qian Weiqiao was 61 years old
The picture shows the spring scenery of Jiangnan, where trees, rocks and waterside pavilions set off each other, and clouds and lake water linger. The author imitates Wang Hui (No. Wumu Mountain Man)’s brushwork, but it also incorporates the elegant charm of Qian’s own rough brushwork, reflecting the artist’s skillful painting skills and composition ability in setting scenery in his later years
