Album of Seasonal Landscapes, Leaf G (previous leaf 7)

A tall, pale rock rises at center, its crown bristling with windswept pines and its base set on water-washed stones. A small figure with a staff stands at its foot, beside a thatched hut at lower left, under distant hazy hills.

Look closer: A small figure with a staff stands near the base of the rock, easily overlooked against the pale stone.
