content: Landscape sketch showing a view of a rugged, pinnacled mountain range in the Austrian Alps, with the steeple of an unfinished church in the middle distance at left. Nearby treetops are loosely rendered, while a rounded hillside is faintly articulated behind them at left. Highlighted in white gouache, the mountain range creates a serrated horizon in the background.
