The Nodding Stone Terrace, Tiger Hill, and the Thousand-Man Seat, from

A pale ink album leaf shows a rocky terrace where small seated figures gather on flat stone ledges beneath dark, leafy cliffs. A pavilion sits on the slope above, a stone pagoda rises at center right, and a railed path curves along the edge.

Look closer: A red seal stamp sits in the lower left corner beside the figures.
