content: Six sightseers look at the view from atop Mount Washington. In the foreground, a man reclines on his elbow with his walking stick resting in his lap. Two finely dressed women sit behind him; the woman closest to the foreground is smelling a bottle. In the left middle ground, another man sits holding his walking stick. There are two women behind him, one standing and one sitting. Below the group on the left is the Tip Top House, the hotel at the summit of Mount Washington. In the background, people on horse back.
