A traditional ink wash painting depicts a serene landscape with rolling hills, a body of water, and scattered trees. The composition is rendered in shades of black and brown ink on a tan background. This painting by Yi Han-cheol (1808-?) displays a stable composition with the background and foreground elements of the autumnal landscape showing a suitable contrast. The artist’s use of ink suggests that he produced this work in his old age. Accession number: Bongwan7902
