label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing an imagined view of a lush river landscape with a prominent tree, position in the foreground at center on a grassy bank. The tree's lush canopy springs out of its wide and squat trunk. A reflective river snakes behind it and into the middle distance, where a heavily wooded shoreline is visible at left. The opposite and equally densely wooded bank is visible at right, beneath what appears to be an open sky.
