Boats at Anchor on West Lake at the City Gate

A fan-shaped album leaf in muted ink and color shows several wooden boats moored at the lower edge of a misty lake. Behind them, dense trees line the shore, and a tiled-roof pavilion with a raised balcony rises at right beneath a faint hill.

Look closer: A small figure stands on the pavilion balcony at the right edge of the building.
