From a wealthy family, their collection of art was stored at the Ch’ing-pi-ko pavilion. Ni Tsan excelled at painting landscapes, being considered one of the Four Yüan Masters. With shades of ink, Ni Tsan has depicted here a river bank on which a sparse grove of trees and bamboo appear clustered around a simple cottage. On the opposite shore, a series of peaks rise. Executed mostly with a centered brush, the texturing of the trees and rocks was largely done with hemp-fiber strokes; some slanted strokes and dots also appear. However, the inscription on this work done in 1372 is actually copied from that of Ni Tsan’s “Jung-hsi Pavilion” in the Museum’s collection, which is considered genuine. The brushwork here also lacks the powerful force of the master, suggesting it is a later copy.
