Wild Geese (from McGuire Scrapbook)

Shepard Alonzo Mount

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of five geese in a body of water. One goose stands on grassy shore in the foreground on the right. Four geese are floating on the water behind it. The geese have long necks and dark heads. The water is calm with minimal ripples. There are some grassy plants in the foreground and to the right. The sketch is signed "S.A.M." in the bottom-right corner and has some illegible writing in the bottom center.
