Catalogue Note

Artist's inscription:
Tugging vines, scrambling up stone steps,
Step by step ascending Gold Sand Ridge!
Dew descends, colors scintillate;
The moon appears, its beams glow brilliantly.
Spirit Pool is never touched by dirt;
Who can fathom its real depth?
I rest a short while where pines and bamboos sing:
Swishing, swishing, mountain rain sets in.
The Immortal's Terrace - how many fathoms tall?
From time to time, all covered by the clouds.
Since his departure, 3000 years have passed:
It makes each visitor watch anxiously, and hope!
