Long Chinese handscroll: columns of calligraphy with a small ink landscape of a hut near the right end.

Spring Rain Thatched Hut

A long horizontal handscroll of ink on paper, with dense columns of Chinese calligraphy filling most of its length. Near the right end, a small ink landscape shows a thatched hut among hills and mist, marked by red seal impressions.

Look closer: Red seal impressions placed beside the painted section at the right end of the scroll.
