the wine tavern banner is hanging out the front of it... ..but there's more even than that,

the ripples on a lake... ..and to the right, two people are rowing a boat

In the foreground,
00:00:02.052 --> 00:00:06.008
a craggy outcrop of rock
covered by trees and bushes...
00:00:08.012 --> 00:00:09.008
..and in the background,
00:00:09.008 --> 00:00:13.072
these towering mountains that are
half hidden by mists
00:00:13.072 --> 00:00:16.068
or perhaps an incoming
rain shower...
00:00:18.076 --> 00:00:22.072
..but as you look at this picture
longer, you begin to see yet more -
00:00:22.072 --> 00:00:26.032
so, down there,
that is a little wooden building.
00:00:26.032 --> 00:00:28.016
You can see the triangular roof.
00:00:28.016 --> 00:00:30.012
There's a fence around its
perimeter -
00:00:30.012 --> 00:00:33.002
and that, believe it or not,
is a wine tavern,
00:00:33.002 --> 00:00:36.000
and we know that because
the wine tavern banner
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:37.072
is hanging out the front of it...
00:00:38.092 --> 00:00:42.036
..but there's more even than that,
because below that wine tavern,
00:00:42.036 --> 00:00:45.000
you can see two
near-horizontal strokes,
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.119
and those represent
the ripples on a lake...
00:00:50.024 --> 00:00:51.599
..and to the right,
00:00:51.599 --> 00:00:54.032
