Andrew Fisher Bunner

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a lakeside scene. The image features a body of water in the foreground. On the far side of the water, a short wooden fence runs along the edge. Behind the fence and to the right, there are trees and a small wooden house or building with a steeply pitched roof and a chimney. To the right of the house, there is a large tree and another building partially obscured by foliage. The background shows additional trees and a light sky. The sketch is rendered in pencil on paper with a rough, torn edge. The artist's signature and location are written in the bottom right corner.
