label: Description
content: Landscape study showing a view of Mt. Katahdin in Maine from Turner Mountain to the east. The lush, wooded slope of Turner Mountain ascends to the right in the immediate foreground. Across a loosely-rendered and heavily wooded valley with a pond (likely Whidden Ponds) in the middle distance, the rugged and steep eastern face of Mt. Katahdin rises into the sky. Baxter and Pamola peaks are visible at left while Hamlin Ridge is shown at right. Above, dark clouds hang in what appears to be a twilight sky.
