William Trost Richards

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white landscape drawing of a lake and mountain range. A large body of water fills the bottom half of the image. The near shore features several large boulders and sparse vegetation. The far side of the water has a gently sloping land covered with coniferous trees. A large mountain range in the background rises up to the left. The sky above the mountain range is filled with clouds. A signature is in the bottom-right corner.
