Clouds Visiting a Mountain Retreat

A hanging scroll in ink on silk showing a towering misty mountain above gnarled pine trees. Two travelers cross a small wooden bridge at lower left, while a waterfall falls beside a cliff and a path winds toward a pavilion at right.

Look closer: Two small figures crossing the wooden bridge at the lower left edge, nearly lost against the rocks.
