View Across A Lake or River to Mountains (from Sketchbook)

Thomas Hewes Hinckley

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a landscape. A body of water fills the bottom half. A line of trees runs across the middle. Behind the trees are hills and a mountain. The picture is drawn on white paper with a thick black border. The sky takes up the top third and is mostly blank. There is a signature in the lower left corner. The image appears to be from a sketchbook.
