The End (tailpiece from McGuire Scrapbook)

Daniel Huntington

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a landscape. A cliffside or rocky outcrop with trees, bushes, and roots. A few birds are flying around the left side. On the rock is carved 'THE END'. It appears to be a tailpiece. The drawing is signed in the bottom-right corner and again in the bottom-left corner.
