DescriptionRight: There is a stream swirling and foaming around a boulder in the foreground; two ducks half hidden by a clump of snow-laden bamboo in the middle ground; and the bulk of a vaguely defined cliff obscured by clouds above.Left: The stream is flowing in the foreground, its banks accented by low lying snow-covered grasses; there are three ducks in the center, one walking, one standing, one squatting; and the silhouette of the cliff's edge appears above right. This scene appears to be the continuation of .1 (with some connecting portion missing).
