Catalogue Note
Artist's inscription:
A bottle of wine recalls the face of the beauty. My spirits are buoyed by my travels through rivers and mountains. Reddened by the morning sun, the fallen leaves await the coming spring. The old autumn winds remember the past traces.
Before my eyes is a screen-like mountain. The recluse on the river views the autumn scenery. On the still, mirror-like water hibiscus petals fall like gauze. The verdant willow leaves obscure my vision like mist.
