content: Landscape sketch showing a view of rugged mountains and a wide valley near or on the way to the town of Mocha, Ecuador. In the foreground at left, an extremely rugged mountain ridge with several sharp pinnacles descends from upper left to center, where shorter, but similarly rugged mountains are visible. Other mountain ridges are visible in the middle distance and extend to the background, where a tall mountain with a rounded, rolling peak is framed by a white cloud bank, rendered in white gouache.
