Dimensions

Description
View of the foothills of mountains. The foreground slopes downwards towards a valley in the middleground. The valley slopes are covered in green, ochre and pale red-brown grass, as well as, patches of dark green and black trees. On the valley's floor are indications of green and brown fields-small touches of blue and white in the valley (near the middle of the picture) may be buildings. Just beyond the fields are triangular hills which separate the valley from the plain in the distance. The right side of these hills are emphasized by the dark patches of forest. In the far distance are medium blue-grey mountains. The sky is light blue and is divided in half by a line of very pale white clouds with some pink blended in.

Description
There are four separate images being depicted on the paper. The first in the top portion of the paper is a group of twelve tipis at the base of a foothill. The hills roll up behind them, with the Rocky Mountains in the background. There are some people by the tipis, but a group of three people in the foreground entering the area. In the second drawing on the bottom half of the paper near the left edge is a drawing of a tipi with trees in front of it and a group a person standing in front of the opening to the tipi. In the background there are mountains. In the third drawing to the right of the second is a group of people travelling in a horse caravan. Above them there is a rough sketch of what could be another tipi. In the fourth drawing in the bottom half of the paper near the right edge there is a man driving a wagon. You can see that he is holding the reins, but the team that is leading cannot be seen. verso: in the TLC it says “K22-2” and in the TRC “Flecn 339”
