Feng Zikai, one of the best Chinese painters/cartoonists of the 20th century, was a true artist like Honoré Daumier. This painting, titled 登高 （Deng Gao, which can be roughly translated as ascend）, illustrates a famous line by 王安石 （Wang Anshi）, written at the right top of the picture, which reads “不畏浮雲遮望眼，自緣身在最高層 — not afraid of the floating clouds to block my eyes, as I am at the very top (of the mountain).”
