content: Landscape sketch showing a loosely rendered view of a mountainous landscape in Mexico. A grassy, rolling plain extends from the foreground to the background, where it encounters a dark range of foothills at center. Behind the foothills, the outlines of two immense, rugged mountain ridges backdrop the scene. The more distant ridge at upper right features a towering peak that extends out of view.
