Mary Newbold Sargent

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a landscape, titled "Land of Benjamin (from Sketchbook)" by Mary Newbold Sargent. The image is a simple line drawing on a light gray background within a thin black rectangular border. The drawing depicts a rolling hillside with several buildings. The hills are mostly smooth contours with some lines indicating texture. The buildings are simple rectangular shapes with some having flat roofs and others having peaked roofs. Some illegible cursive writing is in the bottom-left corner and top-right corner. The background behind the border is plain white.
