Under Storm King, Cornwall, 1871 (from Sketchbook)

Daniel Huntington

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a grayscale sketch of two mountain landscapes side by side. The left sketch depicts a large hill or mountain with a steep face on the left and a flatter section on the right. The right sketch shows a larger mountain with a pointed peak. Both sketches appear to be drawn in pencil. There is illegible writing at the bottom of both sketches. The background of the sketches is a light gray color. The sketches are presented in a two-page spread format. The overall appearance is that of a simple, straightforward drawing of natural scenery.
