Album of Seasonal Landscapes, Leaf H (previous leaf 8)

An ink and light color landscape in which pale blue mountains rise behind a thatched hut with an open door. A seated figure rests at the threshold beside a windswept pine on the right, while a plum tree in bloom grows from a rock at lower left. A column of running calligraphy runs down the upper left.

Look closer: Red seal impressions sit in the lower corners of the leaf.
