Amerikanische Grafik 1857–1868, ca. 1860

The brushstroke technique is precise and detailed. The color palette includes greens, browns, and creams. There is a grassy area in the foreground with figures and a dog. Trees frame the buildings, and the sky transitions from light blue to beige with white clouds.
