content: Five landscape sketches showing views of autumn foliage around the rolling terrain of Vermont. At upper left, a grove of trees--including a candy-red tree at center--is visible in front of a steep, grassy hillside. At upper center, a lone tree stands in a pasture at center, vibrantly cloaked in orange and red autumn hues, as a cow grazes at lower left and a stand of trees is included in the background. At upper right, two cows graze on a gently sloping pasture while two vivid, red trees are shown in the dense woods behind them. At lower left, a shady scene within the woods is included, looking downward at a stand of at least five trees with bright orange-red autumn hues at upper left. Finally, at lower right, a view overlooks a sloping hillside with a split rail fence in the foreground, as a diversely-colored hillside is visible in the distance below a light blue, open sky.
