Coast of Asia Minor (from Sketchbook)

Mary Newbold Sargent

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white landscape sketch of a coast and distant mountains. The mountains are low and wide on the horizon across most of the image. A more abrupt formation juts up on the left edge. The body of water in the foreground is smooth with horizontal lines indicating gentle waves. The sky above has diffuse clouds. Handwritten text in the lower right corner reads, "Miletus & Coast / by Edwin / Sept 18 '04".
