William Trost Richards

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a sketchbook page with a landscape sketch. The sketchbook page is open to two facing pages, left one mostly blank, and right one with faint pencil sketch of a landscape. The sketch on the right page depicts a body of water with a shoreline and distant mountains. Some handwritten text is written on the right page in cursive: "Clallam Bay", "The Olympian Range", "Straits of Fuca". The text is written in three lines. The sketchbook pages have a thin black border around the edges. The pages are white with some darker shading around the edges. The background behind the sketchbook is plain white.
