From the collection of Metropolitan Museum of Art
This painting is a pair of six-panel folding screens, made with ink, color, and gold on gilt paper. The screens show various scenes, including a boat on water, a bird perched on a branch, and a mountain in the distance. One interesting detail is the use of gold leaf to create a sense of depth and luxury in the painting. The gold accents add a touch of opulence to the overall design. If you're interested in learning more about this style of painting, you might want to look into the Baroque movement.
