A watercolour landscape painting of mountains and a lake. There are three grey mountains in the background and behind them is a cloudless blue sky. In the foreground is a blue-green lake. On the bottom right, part of the shore with three large rocks, is visible. In the centre at the bottom, a few branches and two logs are breaking through the water.

Greys, blues, greens and brown are the primary colours used. The artist signature is in the bottom rhc. Au verso, written in pencil along the bottom edge is, “At Lake Minnewanka aug 28/38 Doris Cormie” and also in pencil in the centre of the paper is “27” with a circle around it. Just right of centre near the top is written, “5334”.
