Remarks
This scene may have been painted during July 1932, when Rothko camped at Hearthstone Point near the southern end of Lake George, New York. It is also possible that it was painted during the summer of 1933, when Rothko visited Portland, Oregon, and spent time camping and painting in Forest Park in the Tualatin Mountains west of the city.
