This work is a “Xieyi” (expressional) landscape painting that the artist Lu Yanshao is recognized for. Born in Zhejiang, a city in the Southwestern part of China, Lu’s landscape painting reminds the viewers the style of the “South School '' of literati painting in pre-modern time. In the painting the inscription says “ a gift to Sheng Tian, painted by Lu Yanshao in the year of Bingyin.” Bingyin is the year of 1985. The back of the fan is a calligraphy of the poem, Huanghelou, by the modern print artist, Zhao Zongzao.
Using a cross-sectional composition, the painting depicts a fairyland scene of the peaks of mountains surrounded by clouds and mists. In the very limited space, the artist was able to present the most fascinating view of the whole scenery with a very balanced combination of the ink square, stroke works, and blankness of the image.
From 1962, Lu Yanshao taught at Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts until his death in 1993. Since 1984, Zheng Shengtian has served as the director of the Foreign Affairs Office at the China Academy of Art, holding several short training courses every year to recruit foreign students to study traditional art in China. The short training class hired well-known professors such as Lu Yanshao to give lectures in person. These two folding fans are souvenirs presented by Lu Yanshao to Zheng Shengtian at the end of the lecture.
本副作品为艺术家擅长的写意山水。陆俨少出身浙江，笔下山水颇有中国历史上山水画派之南派的特点。画面上题字，“胜天同志正之 丙寅六月陆俨少画”, 丙寅为1985年。背面为中国近代著名的版画家赵宗藻的书法黄鹤楼诗。
这副扇面以横断构图的方式，描绘了山峰之上云雾缭绕的仙境景象。方寸之间，勾云、留白、墨块，并用，截断构图，呈现山水盛景最精彩的地方，几笔之下，远山近水、一应俱全。灵动的笔触，勾勒出山峰之险峻、彩云之流动，山中植被之丰富。
从1962年起，陆俨少在浙江美院任教，直至1993年病逝。1984年起郑胜天兼任浙美外办主任，每年举办多期短训班，招收国外学员来华学习中国传统艺术。短训班聘请陆俨少等知名教授亲自讲课指导。这两件折扇是陆俨少在授课结束时挥笔赠给郑胜天的纪念品。
