Catalogue Note

Artist inscription:
The clear sky is without wind or rain; a pure air lingers in the garden.
As the night turns quiet, I sit in my pavilion sounding my green zither.
The clouds part to reveal the northern moon; the pavilion is bathed in the shadow of the southern mountain.
The long-robed people being absent, I chant by myself a traveler’s song.
