Wu Guanzhong went on sketching trips to Shanxi a few times in his life, and North Wudang Mountain came from one of his sketches bearing the same title in 1986. Situated in the city of Lvliang, Shanxi, North Wudang is known as the most important mountain in the province. As Wu Guanzhong began to paint, he sought his bearing from the mountain foot as he gazed into the sky. The Guanyin Pavilion and the ancient pine trees are depicted in vivid details in the foreground, while the rocky peaks, painted in semi-abstract brushwork, lie in the background.
Formed by granite, North Wudang has little vegetation except for the elegant pine trees which grow through the rocks. With a few confident grey lines, Wu depicted the exposed shape and the texture of the granite and only dotted with a few colours to indicate trees and rocks. The monochrome background juxtaposes the colourful foreground and accentuates the height of the monumental peaks.
