label: Description
content: Landscape sketch showing a view overlooking Catskill Creek and its environs in the town of Catskill, New York. In the foreground at right, the river curves around wooded banks and is increasingly obscured by trees and terrain as it winds into the landscape. In the middle distance at center left, two structures in a fenced-in pasture are showing along the creek's wooded left bank. Beyond, rolling terrain extends into the background, where the outline of the Catskill Escarpment forms the horizon.
