Evening Glow at Mono Lake, from Mono Mills
1930

A watercolor painting depicting a serene landscape at dusk with layered hues of purple, blue, and orange in the sky above a dark silhouette of a mountain range. In the foreground, there's a strip of beach with a cluster of dark green pine trees and a calm blue body of water reflecting the sky's colors. The painting is signed in the bottom left corner and is mounted on a cream-colored mat.
