Title

Fisherman
蘆灘釣艇圖

Description

Artist’s inscription and signature (4 columns in cursive script)

Red leaves west of the village reflect evening rays,
Yellow reeds on a sandy bank cast early moon shadows.
Lightly stirring his oar, thinking of returning home,
He puts aside his fishing pole, and will catch no more.[1]

紅葉村西夕影餘,黃蘆灘畔月痕初。
輕撥棹,且歸歟,挂起漁竿不釣魚。
梅老戲墨
