Lakeside Pavilion
(China )
What looks natural may be a landscape garden on a grand scale--with a palace-like structure in the distance and an elaborate pavilion on the shore, where one can listen to music surrounded by trees and giant ornamental rocks.
Nothing is known about the person who signed this delicately painted landscape.
