This composition after Chen Hongshou includes Chen"s inscription: "On a snowy night in the wuchen year [1628] I got drunk by the Ruoye River [near Chen"s hometown].My friend pressured me to paint, even though my ten fingers almost cracked from the cold. This is painted when I had more leisure. Hongshou painted this while intoxicated in my study."
