This painting shows a typical view of the famous West Lake, near Hangzhou, in China. The water surface is executed with fluid, quivering brushstrokes, while the texture of the mountains and rocks are expressed by soft lines of moist ink. The use of color creates the impression of sunlight flooding the landscape.
