content: Landscape sketch showing a view of birches and evergreen trees on the shore of Pemadumcook Lake in Maine. The lake's surface extends from the foreground to the middle distance, where it encounters the shoreline, which is heavily covered with trees that form a kind of wall or united mass along the bank. The many trunks are represented as repetitious vertical lines. Dark evergreens visible at left.
