Description

Subject Matter:

The album leaf consists of two paintings, each on one side. The left side of the album leaf depicts a thatch hut in a forest under the moonlight, and the other painting depicts similar themes as in three other album leaves: rocks and and mountains at a more distant level, and trees, a straw pavilion in the front. The painting in the left side creates a more intimate scene and the moon provides a sense of time.

Physical Description:

This painting (and the one adjacent) comes from an album of four landscape paintings.
