A circular, domed porcelain cover features a light green glaze and a white flower handle with gold-edged leaves and a curved stem. Below the handle, a scrolled gold border frames a painted landscape. Four figures in colorful clothing stand near a brown tent on a riverbank to the right. Smooth water flows across the center toward distant buildings and purple mountains under a pale sky.
