About
Catalog
View fullsize Heaven is high, earth wide; bitter between them flies my sorrow
View fullsize Mysterious wisdom won by toil
View fullsize And the moon comes running up the river
View fullsize While the moon is rounding towards the full
View fullsize An image of mysterious wisdom won by toil
View fullsize An hour of changing scenes
View fullsize The birds have vanished down the sky
View fullsize A lonely moon turns among the waves
View fullsize If I could walk on ice, with my feet bare!
View fullsize The way goes on forever
View fullsize War
View fullsize Chíeng-tu City (now known as Chengdu)
View fullsize Standing Alone
View fullsize Moonlight infusing idleness everywhere
View fullsize But this heart of mine they still do not know
View fullsize Sleepless Night
View fullsize We the living, we’re passing travelers
View fullsize Night in the House by the River
View fullsize A View of the Wilderness
View fullsize Facing Snow
View fullsize Evening near Serpent River
View fullsize Facing Snow #3
View fullsize Facing Snow #4
View fullsize Facing Snow #2
View fullsize Only the mindless waters remain
View fullsize Deer Park
View fullsize Watching the play of ripples is endless pleasure
View fullsize Facing Snow #5
View fullsize Where the color of mountains both is and is not
View fullsize Only vast floods that stretch to the clouds
View fullsize My heart in middle age found the Way
View fullsize In a deep lane, all silence
View fullsize As the years go by, give me but peace
View fullsize Bird-Cry Creek
View fullsize But I suddenly dream of riding a boat, sailing for the sun
View fullsize You leave, and I ask no more
