Two Landscape Sketches with Trees and Mountains (from Sketchbook)

Albert Bierstadt

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white pencil sketch on paper. The sketch is in a rectangular shape with rounded corners and is placed in a slightly larger rectangular white background with a thin black line at the bottom. The sketch depicts two landscape scenes stacked vertically. The top scene shows trees on the left and right with mountains in the background. The bottom scene appears to show a mountainous landscape. The sketch is very faint. The background of the image is plain white.
