DescriptionA portion of one large, off-white stone fills the bottom third of this vertical image, the upper edge of the stone forming an irregular curve. Stacks of large, irregular rocks of a darker color are standing further back in the image, a small distance back from the foreground rock. Golden grasses fill the upper third of the image. Two leaves hang from twigs above the stacks of the rocks in the middle ground. A few small flowers with white petals also appear in the upper part of the image.Exhibition HistoryProvenance
