As the weather cools and autumn advances, let’s travel through time with this painting by Sheng Mao, a Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368) artist. Immerse yourself in the serene and leisurely mountain life of ancient Chinese literati during the cool autumn season.

In the painting, a scholar dressed in white sits comfortably by the water, fishing in tranquility. The surrounding landscape of sprawling trees, rugged mountains and reeds swaying in the water creates a peaceful atmosphere that perfectly captures the essence of a calm autumn day. Collection: Jinan City Museum.
