Landscape in Moonlight
A hanging scroll in ink on silk showing dark rocky islets emerging from soft layers of mist. Pale washes suggest a moonlit sky and water, while a small cluster of pines and a red seal mark sit near the lower right.
Look closer: A small red seal sits beside the inscription near the lower right.
