Landscape after Ni Zan

A hanging scroll in ink and light color shows a craggy, tree-covered mountain rising above a low hut or pavilion on the left. Below, a path winds past leaning trees and a small roofed building among rocks, with columns of calligraphy and red seals at the upper left.

Look closer: A small roofed hut sits at the base of the mountain on the left, nearly lost among the rocks.
