content: Landscape sketch showing two nearly identical views of rolling, wooded terrain in or near Catskill, New York, stacked on top of each other. In both views, a small building is nestled on the edge of a clearing at right, backdropped by a round hill--the tallest point in the scene. An expansive rolling landscape continues at left into the background. The uppermost drawing is darker.
