The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a landscape on two pages. The left page depicts a tree on a hill; the tree is drawn with sparse leaves and a trunk that bends to the right. The right page depicts a range of hills or mountains in the distance. The date "Sept. 1871" and the words "Gate of the Highlands, Mohonk" are written in cursive at the bottom right. The background of both pages is blank with some smudges and marks. The artwork is a sketchbook page.
