About this work

This print shows two figures standing outdoors by a path. The person on the left wears a long, colorful robe with a red sash and a tall hat. The other person, older and smaller, is dressed in a simple blue-green robe. Behind them, a tree with red blossoms leans over the scene. The background has a faint landscape with hills and a river. The poem written vertically along the left side adds meaning to the image. The artist used delicate colors and careful brushwork to create a quiet, detailed scene.
