- Description:
In the shade of green locust trees, green bamboo and aragonite are planted together in the flower bed of Xumizuo. In the garden, the upper part of the stone railing is the head of a lotus column, and the bottom of the railing pillar is carved with a bottle and Ruyi cloud pattern, which is a typical official practice and is mostly used in royal gardens. The scholar holds the Zhu tail in his right hand, puts his left wrist on his leg, and places a voluminous picture in front of his desk. He looks at the picture with his eyes fixed on his mind and speaks in his mouth. One of the other washes hands looks back, standing behind with his clothes on, and the other holds a round fan to the viewer. Five child servants presented picture scrolls and toilet tools, and one of them hung a painting barrier with a fork pole. In the painting, the “corners” of the landscape are carved with an axe and painted with ink. The leaves are painted quickly, similar to the composition of Ma Yuan’s works in the Southern Song Dynasty.
