Catalogue Note
Artist's inscription:
At pine pavilion, the flying snow is very thick at dawn,
I think I see Mount Lanka jutting high with 10,000 peaks;
We leave the town and float gently on our little silver boat,
Cross the lake and view the jade hibiscus blossoms.
Trying to perch on ancient ruins, the sand birds are all confused,
Never changing their hoary visage, the pine trees in the gully.
At sunset, where can Cloud Gate mountain peak be seen?
As mist breaks up, I can finally see the heaven-climbing dragon!
