Finely carved and undercut as a mountain landscape with Shoulao, his deer and an attendant
standing on a promontory near a majestic pine growing near the edge, a lone pavilion in the
distance, the scene reversed by a stately pine and crane in a grotto shaded by imposing
overhanging rocks and vines, another bird in flight above, the stone a pale greenish white color
with unctuous mottling throughout.
