This is the reverse I believe. I can't find any specific information on the imagery. I don't think there is any special meaning to the woman peaking through the rock formation as this appears on many Ye bottles and does not appear to be connected to any specific story. My best guess is that this is a scene from Liaozhai Zhiyi or Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio which looks like a favorite Ye Family subject.
