He also was said to have been a fanatic about cleanliness. After the age of 39, he left home and led the life of a drifter. In painting, he did not often use colors, giving his works a sense of pure and elegant harmony. This landscape painting is the only work by Ni Tsan in the Museum collection done in light colors. Compared to the empty compositions often seen in his other paintings, this one is much more complex with many forms. Along with Ni Tsan's own inscription in the upper right corner and those of others, almost the entire surface of this work is filled, making it an exceptional example of his painting. This work was done in 1368.
