early-mid 20th century
This small, rectangular album leaf depicts a landscape with several houses nestled behind a grove trees in the left foreground; in the right foreground, a scholar seated astride a donkey and trailed by an attendant carrying a parcel--probably a cabana--rides toward the houses. A lake occupies the painting's middle ground; low, rolling hills topped by deciduous trees separate the far edge of the middle ground from the background, which features distant mountains. Written in four columns, the artist's inscription appears in the upper right corner. Two seals of the artist accompany the inscription: a rectangular, red, intaglio seal appears at the beginning of the inscription, and a square, red, relief seal reading "Tu San" (the artist's sobriquet) appears at the end.
