明 十竹齋書畫譜 四開|Page from Shi Zhu Zhai is a 1633 ink by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This image shows a simple but lively scene on light paper. On the left, a cluster of green leaves with yellow spots and a single flower with petals like tiny flames. A long, curved branch stretches across the page, ending in a tiny bird with a pink beak. On the right, a small, round fruit with a stem sits next to a squat, leafy plant. The colors are muted—mostly greens, pinks, and browns—with just a few bright yellows in the leaves. The lines are bold and confident, like someone sketched it quickly but carefully.
