Despite his simple, naive strokes and the beauty of the scene, the inscription 'the river is deep, and it is cold in the waterside pavilion in May' expresses a sense of desolation. [show more]

Description:This is an ink painting by Lu Zishu (1900-1978). He created this landscape in the style of late Ming painter Li Liufang(1575-1629).
