A six-panel screen set in a dark wooden frame, with pale painting surfaces against a black ground and gleaming gold-capped corners. Spanning the full screen is an ink painting of autumn maples, their crimson leaves layered like glowing clouds, with several small birds resting among the gnarled branches. The left panel bears a cursive inscription: "Why does the running water flow so swiftly, while the deep palace lies quiet all day?" Below it is a blurred signature, adding to the screen's refined literati charm.
