Description
A sensitively drawn drypoint in brown-black ink, depicting a field in Marin County, Northern California. Lawrence Scammon frequently captured the rural landscapes of the North Bay, known for its rolling hills dotted with oaks, chaparral, coyote brush, and California buckeye. A small wooden fence is the only sign of human activity in the quiet countryside.
