| Site: | The Three Sisters mountains, Oregon, viewed across a river. |
| Description: | The center of the painting is dominated by three snow-covered mountain peaks silhouetted sharply against a grey, dark sky, the lower reaches of snow having been turned pink by the sun, which is setting off the canvas to the right. The view is up a river valley lined with conifer forests and across a lower range of mountains. On the nearby right bank stand several boulders above the bank; a fallen snag leans down the upper part of the bank. Standing above the right bank against the sky is a tall tree; behind it in the distance are high, rocky cliffs. The left bank of the river consists of a steep rock outcrop for some distance before it turns into a beach on which stands a tent. (From a color photograph.) |
| Identification: | Assigned title, based on similarity of subject matter to Sunset on the Three Sisters, Oregon [1] and Sunset on the Three Sisters, Oregon [2], both of which were titled by the artist. |
