- Description
- View of a lightly wooded field with a large blue mountain in the lefthand background. The foreground contains a grass-covered field (coloured in tans, ochre, red-brown and grey-brown) with trees scattered about. The foliage of the trees is coloured yellow, ochre and red-brown. Four of the tallest trees fill the righthand side of the picture. A small figure (clothed in black) sits sketching near the lower left corner. (The paint in this corner is in bad condition.) The large background mountain is coloured medium blue at the top, with lower slopes of green. Areas of loose rock are sketched in near the centre of the mountain; These small areas are brown-grey with touches of orange indicating (larch?) trees. The sky is light blue.

- Description
- Similar to WyC.01.291. The figure of a tall woman stands in the right foreground. She has been outlined in pencil, and her dress painted light yellow (with some white highlights, and shadows of grey). The woman's face, hands and feet have not been painted in. The woman stands in the middle of a tan path, which extends from the lower right corner and disappears into the forest behind the figure. The peak of the large mountain in the background is located directly above the woman's head. The mountain had shaded areas of medium blue and its sunlit slopes are tan (with white areas of snow). The sky is light blue. A light yellow cloud floats above the mountain's summit (the cloud dissipates as it extends towards the left side of the picture).Tom Link 1945/46 had the vision of her.
