About This Piece
A bridge and waterside buildings sit below distant hills in an arched rectangular scene. The reverse shows a broad plain surface, making the difference between shallow carving and retained jade easy to compare. The source notes small cotton-like inclusions in the jade; these should be assessed in the close-up photographs.
Carving details and what to examine
Compare the outer profile in the full view with the smaller carved details in the close-ups. An angled view helps separate changes in surface depth from differences caused by lighting. Photographs are useful for studying the composition, but do not establish the maker, the tools used or a workmanship grade.
