Large watercolor on cream colored paper depicts a country road - side scene with an elderly sage resting after an arduous trip in a primitive cart. Calligraphy tells the story. Poem Translation Mountain trip by Du MU (Tang dynasty 803-853) Far up the mountain side the stone trail wound. Where the clouds were thick there stood some abodes. I stop my cart to watch the maple forest late With frost-bitten leaves more crimson than spring blooms.
