Description

The rear of two suburban single-family dwellings seen from the rear. The setting is a heavily wooded area; in the background, there are what appear to be two tall conifer trees amidst a thick growth of deciduous trees. The house on left appears to be a two-story structure rather large and sprawling. House on the right is smaller and appears to be a single-story dwelling. The house on right has a picket fence around it and also has lap siding which the house on left does not. The pencil is laid down in fairly even tones, but the conifer trees in the background and outlines of foreground houses are much darker than the surrounding shading.
