    Description

    Landscape sketch showing a view of autumn foliage in the hilly landscape of Vermont. At center right and left, two stands of mature trees are colored in shades of green, red, and orange in early autumn. A split rail fence is possibly visible between the two groups. Behind them, a hill rises abruptly and is covered in deep red and brown trees. At upper left, the hill's wooded ridge is visible beneath the sky.
