An ink-wash painting in the style of ancient Japanese literature. A young man with delicate, expressive features sits cross-legged, deeply absorbed in reading a few open books on his lap.

The background features subtle, misty ink gradients suggesting mountains and a quiet river, with delicate bamboo details framing the scene. Emphasize minimalism, fluid brushstrokes, and a serene, timeless atmosphere. See more
