content: Landscape sketch showing a view of Ripogenus Lake in Maine, looking east from near the lake's southern shore. In the foreground, loosely-rendered trees grow on a slope that slowly descends to the water's edge. The lake itself is shown in the middle distance at center left, bounded by a heavily wooded bank at left. At center, the rapids around the lake's inlet are visible, while an abrupt, round hill rises immediately to their right. Behind, a heavily wooded slope descends from the left margin to the center. A faint mountain ridge is included in the background.
