Catalogue Note
Artist's inscription:
Accustomed to the pleasures of rivers and mountains, I ride a boat to visit a mountain villa. Swaying in the waves I forget it is the end of the year, nor do I have the time to lament my impending return. In the morning I wash with the water of Boyang Lake, and in the evening I cook fish caught in it. I raise our cups to the setting moon, whose light illuminates the books that fill my boat. Boating in a lake with my assistant Li Qiao.
