介绍（中）	这幅画以其对冬季在山区旅行的严酷描绘而闻名，本应吸引来自北方山西省的商人。袁遥的创作灵感来自于梦幻般的花园假山，而不是真实的风景，他将扭曲的垂直山景与水平的景色并置，一座有趣的曲折桥将景色一分为二。远处陡峭的山峰被一座装饰着帕维利的桥所横跨，这是中国南部平坦地形中典型的花园景观，不协调地悬挂在深深的裂缝上。前景中，一家熙熙攘攘的乡村客栈承诺为游客提供一个受欢迎的休息站袁首先用苍白的轮廓勾勒出这幅单色杰作，然后用不同的墨水色调添加了更宽、大胆的轮廓，这两种色调都塑造了它们，并用图形能量使它们充满活力。其结果是一个动态的构图，似乎是以极大的自发性执行的，而不是每一个主题的精心策划和渲染。袁的工艺最明显的表现在他对水墨的处理上，这些水墨保留了被雪覆盖的表面。
介绍（英）	This painting, with its extravagant depiction of the rigors of traveling in the mountains in winter, would have appealed to the merchants from the northern province of Shanxi. Inspired by fantastic garden rockeries rather than an actual landscape, Yuan Yao’s fanciful composition juxtaposes a twisting vertical mountainscape with a level vista where a playful zigzag bridge bisects the view. A distant range of precipitous peaks is straddled by a bridge ornamented with a pavilion—a typical garden conceit in the level terrain of south China—that is incongruously suspended over a deep chasm. In the foreground, a bustling country inn promises a welcome rest stop for travelers. Yuan first laid out this monochrome masterpiece with pale outlines then added broader, boldly brushed contours in varying ink tones that both model forms and enliven them with graphic energy. The result is a dynamic composition that appears to have been executed with great spontaneity—belying the care with which each motif was planned and rendered. Yuan’s craftsmanship is most apparent in his handling of ink washes that leave the snow-covered surfaces in reserve.
