Album of Daoist and Buddhist Themes
Fifty small leaves are arranged in a grid on tan paper, each holding faint ink figures in courtyards, halls and landscapes. The brushwork is fine and pale, with groups of robed figures gathering and processing across the album.
Look closer: A small red seal or stain appears on the upper left leaf.
