This painting depicts Taibai Mountain and its surrounding scenery in Jing County, Zhejiang Province, focusing on the 20 li of forest in front of the Tiantong Temple. The forest in the painting is dense, setting off the temple pavilion and grass hut, among which horse-riders and monks went their own ways. Trees of dozens of species, with green and crimson leaves intermingled, highlight the serenity of the mountain. The painting was part of Shen Zhou and Xiang Yuanbian's collections in the Ming Dynasty, then of Liang Qingbiao and An Yizhou's collections in the early Qing Dynasty.
