Untitled - Green Valley

Landscape of Green Valley with Evergreens: The painting shows a large green valley with mountains in the distance. In the foreground is a bright, grassy meadow with rolling hills and a few large rocks. Dark green evergreens frame the painting, with a smaller cluster of evergreens in the center, at a distance. Behind the trees, the green valley stretches toward the mountains, with Camel's Hump rising in the distance. The sky is filled with fluffy, white clouds, interspersed with small sections of blue sky. Signed by Dorothea Taber Stafford in the lower-right corner.
