Description
Subject Matter:

Physical Description:
This sketch depicts a lake, trees, a boat, and a man. Directly in main view in the center is a collection of about four trees directly on the coast of a large lake. As we move forward into the body of water, we see a boat and a man. Slightly toward the upper left of the page, a boat with a large sail appears to be moving left and a man in the boat also faces in the same direction. Beyond the boat is a collection of dark clouds. To the right is a two-line vertical inscription written in black ink. In the line closer to the center of the page is a red stamp following the inscription. Red, orange, and black are used in this painting.
