content: The scene of the plum orchard depicts a gradation of the pink sky that compliments the blossoms blooming on the trees. The right side contains a palanquin with the traveler’s green overgarment flung over the top. Assuming he has stopped to drink sake, admire the calligraphy on the stone stelae, as well as take in the beauty of nature. Throughout the print are a dozen other figures also embracing this particular moment in time.
