The Lonely Tower (Castle on a River with Willows and a Boat)

Mary Altha Nims

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Lonely Tower (Castle on a River with Willows and a Boat) by Mary Altha Nims. A grayscale image of a drawing shows a river scene. A brick tower stands on the riverbank with a rounded top and small barred windows on the visible sides; it is surrounded by trees and shrubs. A couple rows of vertical slits are on the bottom portion. A boat with two people inside and a pointed bow faces to the right. A man on the right holds a pole extended into the water while another man on the left holds what appears to be a triangular flag. Large boulders and shrubs are in the foreground along the riverbank. A few buildings are on the right in the distance. The sky is cloudy.
