label: Description
content: Landscape study showing a view of the surface of an emerald lake in Bavaria, possibly the Königssee or Obersee. In the immediate foreground, a rowboat is moored on a shoreline that is out of view. The teal-emerald waters of the lake extend from foreground to background, where they meet the steep, wooded mountain slopes that form the opposite bank. In the middle distance at left, two curving, rocky banks jut into the lake.
