Sweeping curvilinear lines imbue it with a poetic serenity, while the upright lines of a tree on the extreme right serve to stabilize the whole. The artist increasingly restricted his darkest tones in his mature work, opening up his pictures and enhancing the impression of vastness so characteristic of his Rocky Mountain scenes.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath
