content: Landscape sketch showing marshy terrain near Millinocket Lake in Maine. Grass or reeds grow out of shallow water in the foreground and extend to a rise in the land at center left that hosts a grove of trees. Behind, white gouache is used to articulate the reflective surface of Millinocket Lake. In the background, the lake's heavily wooded opposite shoreline is marked by white gouache, which highlights the trunks of numerous trees.
