Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

This is an oil painting of a landscape showing a lake in a valley. Surrounded by pine trees, rolling hills, and mountains, the lake stretches from the lower left corner of the scene to its disappearing point slightly right of the center scene. To the right of the lake shore are fields, crossed by a wooden fence, along which are two haystacks. There are clusters of pine trees in the foreground and at intervals along the lake shore. More trees and wooded hills are visible in the distance. The painting is signed by the artist in the lower left corner "G.T. Brown."
