Catskill Clove in Palingsville

William Rickarby Miller

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A serene landscape with a stream flowing through a rocky gorge, surrounded by lush green trees and boulders. The stream runs from the bottom center, with large rocks and boulders on either side. Trees with green foliage lean over the stream from both banks, with more trees and a forest visible in the background. The sky above is light brown with white clouds. A signature in cursive is visible in the bottom right corner. The image has rounded corners on a white background.
