label: Description
content: Landscape and atmosphere sketch showing a view of sunbeams cascading through clouds and onto the rolling landscape of Catskill, New York. Below, gently undulating, wooded foothills stretch across the middle distance, while an outline of a portion of the Catskill Escarpment is visible in background at center left. Above, a loosely-rendered cloud bank begins to break apart, allowing sun rays to emanate into the landscape, which are articulated as subtle, streaky lines.
