19th century, ink on silk, quiet compact landscape with lush foliage that surrounds entire circle except where calligraphy verse is written in upper right hand side, a faceless scholar stands near a mountain village, professionally framed with double mats, not examined outside of the frame.

DOA 17 x 17 in.

Some pulls to silk in lower center; calligraphy has been repainted with different calligraphy; probable retouching to landscape scene.
