"description": "This leaf presents a rising promontory in the near distance, whose base is hidden by a dense grove of barren, autumnal trees. A gentle incline emerges from the lower right, with a small path leading to its summit, where a gentleman is sheltered from the wind by two pines. This promontory resembles Guangming Ding \u5149\u660e\u9802 (Summit of the Bright and Luminous), the second tallest peak in Huangshan \u9ec3\u5c71 (Mt. Huang or Yellow Mountain), the scenic area that inspired much of Mei Qing\u2019s artistic production. Instead of looking down on the \u201cSea of Clouds,\u201d though, as one who scales Huangshan\u2019s peak would, this gentleman is looking out at two boats on an actual sea.",
