Botanical and landscape showing a view of a deciduous tree in or near Catskill, New York, growing out of rocky, rugged terrain. In the foreground at right, a craggy rock formation emerges from the grounds as vegetation grows in its crevices. At center, the tree grows diagonally to the right. Its two large boughs, which are mostly leafless, split into a "V" as they divide from the trunk. Another, smaller tree behind it is incompletely rendered. Graphite on tan wove paper
