Conversation in a Thatched Hut
A round silk leaf in ink and color shows two robed figures seated on a raised wooden platform beneath a thatched roof, facing each other across a low table. Bare trees, bamboo, and blue-green rocks frame the hut beside a pond, in a gentle landscape.
Look closer: A small shrub grows at the lower left edge of the pond, beside the platform.
