content: Landscape sketch showing view of a mountain ridge in the Blue Mountains, Jamaica. Mountains are partially illuminated at left, but largely shaded by storm clouds at center and right. Range's succeeding slopes become hazy and indistinct as they recede due to atmospheric perspective. Green treetops are visible in the immediate foreground along the lower margin.
