content: Mixed sketches around Mt. Desert Island, Maine, showing a view of a coast evergreen tree and a lighthouse. Rendered in great detail at right, the evergreen curves upwards as it grows out of a patch of grass on a rocky shoreline. The tree conveys a sense of age and weight. At upper left and oriented to the left, a tall, conical lighthouse is shown beside a gabled keeper's house with two chimneys.
