Daoist Retreat in Mountain and Stream (Landscape after Ni Zan [1301–1374]) is a 1567 unspecified by Lu Zhi, a Renaissance work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with towering mountains and a winding stream. The scene is rendered in muted colors, with the mountains and trees depicted in shades of gray and brown. In the foreground, a small house or hut is nestled among the trees, adding a sense of human presence to the otherwise natural scene. The artist's use of delicate lines and subtle color gradations creates a sense of depth and atmosphere in the painting. The Cleveland Museum of Art is home to this beautiful piece of art.
