More about this artwork
The painting portrays a vibrant scene dominated by a large, verdant lotus leaf resting on a serene, lightly rippled water surface. Atop the leaf sits a golden-brown frog, poised as if attentively observing its surroundings. The background of the painting is enveloped in a subtle grey mist, possibly suggesting an early morning atmosphere. To the right, a partially visible, towering lotus stalk stretches upward, bearing an unopened bud, poised elegantly against the muted background. Delicate, spindly grass shoots emerge from the water near the frog, adding a touch of liveliness to the tranquil scene.
