CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION
[Recto] A rough sketch looks up to an "A" frame tent pitched amid a grouping of trees. There is a rack built over a pile of rocks and a few tree stumps in the foreground.[Verso] Tall, sparse pines are depicted in the foreground, taking up most of the page, with a loosely drawn landscape in the lower third of the image. In the upper left corner, there is a study of people in an open boat with some notes made above.
