Westlake Panorama

A woodblock print in black ink shows a lakeside town. Pagodas, tiled houses and willows line the shore beneath craggy hills, while a covered boat and a smaller skiff move across rippling water in the foreground.

Look closer: A small figure stands on the arched stone bridge at the upper right.
