LARGE SCHOLAR'S SIGN

rare and unusual scholar's lacquer painting. The scene depicts seven literati leisurely in an outdoor garden scene with a large scholar's rock in the center. Young apprentices are serving food and wine. We assume that the calligraphy on the right hand side is a poem. The base underneath the lacquer is a traditional mixture of woven straw and fine unbaked clay.
