This relaxing scene on marble is difficult to categorize. The round marble is 10" across, 1/4" thick and naturally heavy. The scene appears to be Chinese and has characters and signature "chop" in one area and may be a poem or quote. If you can read this, please send me an email, as I would like to know what this represents. The scene is a relaxing landscape of a man on a boat in a lake or river in a mountain area, with dramatic scenery. This belongs in a display mode, as the paint might come off if anything was placed on it. This would be a good meditation item as the scene is very relaxing.
