label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing a view across a lake in northern Maine--likely Togue Lake, Lake Millinocket, or Katahdin Lake. In the foreground, a large round rock is partially submerged and reflected in the lake's glassy surface, which extends across the scene. In the background, as well as in the middle distance at left, the lake's heavily wooded shoreline is visible. It steadily ascends to the left in the background. The hazy and partially cloudy sky above is reflected in the lake's still surface.
