label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing a view of an expansive valley bounded by rugged mountains in Mexico. In the foreground, two trees with blooming canopies are faintly rendered at lower right. The flat, wide floor of the valley extends from the middle distance and into the background, where it is bounded by mountain ranges on all sides. These rugged ranges with their many sharp peaks create a serrated horizon. Large mountain at right heavily shaded.
