This is a "Bonseki" (stone garden) artwork, created by Hakuin Ekaku, a renowned Zen Buddhist monk and artist, who lived in Japan between the 17th and 18th centuries. His works, like this "Bonseki," are known for their minimalist aesthetics, with simple brushstrokes and ink washes capturing the essence of nature. The artwork features a landscape with rocks and a single tree, suggesting a serene and contemplative environment, a hallmark of Zen philosophy.
