Plate 24. Castle Rock, Green River Valley

Andrew Joseph Russell

National Gallery of Art

The image features a calm river winding through a rugged landscape. Closest to the viewer are low shrubs and a person standing in the shallow water. A large rock formation dominates the left side of the image, with distant hills visible on the right. The horizon is low in the image, with a clear sky and an earthy color palette of browns, tans, and grays reflecting on the river's surface.
