content: Landscape sketch showing a loosely rendered view of a campfire in the woods and its smoke, likely near Lake Millinocket in Maine. In the foreground, a fallen tree trunk extends obliquely out of frame. At center, the campfire emits a column of smoke that expands as it rises. A tall, visibly shaded conifer tree looms over the composition in the background at center, while several other trees are loosely sketched in the background and middle distance at left and right.
