content: Verso: Botanical sketch showing two views of tree trunks and roots in Catskill, New York. Two pairs of the same trees are sketched at center and at right. The leftmost tree twists upward in an S-curve, while the right one appears to be a stump with thin branches. In both sketches, their twisting roots are visible below the trunks.
