Rise in Rank and Attain Wealth

A plump child with tufted hair and a ruddy face, dressed in a loose robe, grasps a sprig in one hand while leaning on a deer at lower right. Behind them, a pavilion with a tiled roof, balustrade and a round window opens onto a garden with bamboo.

Look closer: A small hanging lantern is visible inside the round window at upper right.
