+ OVERVIEW
Elegantly carved with the celebrated scholar-official Su Shi (1037- 1101) making an excursion to the Red Cliff, the carver of this piece has skilfully achieved a sense of naturalism through the depiction of the gently flowing water and the facial features of Su and his friends who are shown gazing at the landscape.
