content: Landscape sketch showing a view of hills and mountains in the Bavarian Alps, Germany. A lone conifer tree stands in the immediate foreground at left in a wheat-colored meadow on a hill that descends into a wooded valley in the middle distance. A house is visible at the base of the hill at center. At left, a steep, wooded slope rises out of view. In the distance, the rocky mountainsides of a soaring alpine range are tinged in a shade of pink. Above, hastily-rendered clouds fill the sky.
