Autumn has arrived and the maple leaves are turning stunningly red. This beautiful painting by Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) artist Zhou Chen (1460-1535) vividly captures the spirit of Tang Dynasty (618-907) poet Du Mu’s poem about autumn. In Zhou’s illustration, travelers pause in awe at a majestic maple tree, spellbound by the vibrant scenery.
