Description
Photograph of an unidentified river surrounded by canyon walls, ca.1950. The dark, rippling river winds through the marshlands as the surface reflects the dark grass in the foreground and overhanging trees on the left bank further down the river. A small puddle of water lies in the grass on the left with short hillsides spotted with trees standing in the background behind it. A tall, leveled mountain side stands on the right with trees along its steep slope. Rows of hills stand in front of the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
