content: Landscape sketch showing an intimate, detailed view of the corner of a pond and the foliage on its banks. At lower right, a spit of grassy earth extends into the placid pond, which reflects the spindly branches of two bushes visible at upper center. Lily pads gather on the water's surface beneath these bushes, while a smaller, orange-brown plant is included at center. The background is a dark green haze, while the light gray ground is visible in the lower right corner.
