Transcription

No. 2 View on the left side of the wood directly opposite the landscape depicted in No. 1. The road lies between the two. The willows were bent by a storm and have remained in that position until they have permanently grown as you see them. A very pretty landscape, but it does not belong to us as it lies south of the river, and we have our property all on the north side.
