This serene landscape, composed in a classical horizontal format, showcases the harmonious balance between sky, land, and water. The sky occupies the top third of the composition, while the lower two-thirds reveal a lush strip of vegetation that marks the horizon line, leading to a tranquil body of water in the foreground. The brushwork is fluid yet precise, capturing the essence of nature with remarkable detail. Bathed in subtle gradients of green, the scene evokes a sense of both realism and surrealism, enhanced by the artist's expert manipulation of light and atmospheric effects. Through delicate chromatic shifts and a keen understanding of form, Jianjian Xing invites the viewer into a peaceful, almost dreamlike world, where nature’s beauty is rendered with both fidelity and artistic abstraction.
