Size: 12 x 24 inches (30 x 61 cm) [but see note]
Inscription: l/l "F. Schafer" in a rounded hand that appears on several Schafer sketches.
Verso: n.v. Back is covered, carrying labels of Kennedy Galleries, New York, and Harrison Galleries, Vancouver, B.C. and handwritten text by the Kennedy Galleries, including what appear to be photo and negative numbers.
Provenance: In private collection, Victoria, B.C., by 2003; with Braarud Fine Art, La Conner, Washington, 2006.

Citations: personal communication
Site: A view of Mount Hood from along The Dalles, a gorge along the Columbia River.
Description: PRECAT
Note: The painting does not have a high degree of finish. That, together with its small size, suggests that it may be a field sketch. Braarud Fine Art reports the size as 14 x 22 inches.
Identification: Title as given by the Kennedy Galleries label, probably based on a currently hidden verso inscription.
