Among the finer touches are a bird in gentle motion and camellia in bloom. A column of calligraphy adds a literary note to the composition. Every element of the mounting serves the painting, nothing more. It brings a sense of calm that photographs cannot quite capture. It rewards the collector who looks twice.
