- Description
- General colours of grey, white, green, purple, grey, gold, black and blue. In the foreground is a rock pile painted in shades of purple, grey and green, and to the viewer’s extreme right, the blue of the north end of Moraine Lake. Above the rock pile to the viewer’s left are a stand of coniferous tree becoming sparser (seven trees) as the eye turns to the right ending at the edge of the rock pile. To the viewer’s left, above the foreground trees, are hills covered in snow and trees and the massive grey, green, and brown Tower of Babel mountain mid- to right. Below the Tower and to the right is the dark grey and black rock slide, sparsely covered with trees, which rises to the slate-coloured mountain. Snow-covered chutes and gullies lined with trees rise from behind the rock pile to the viewer’s extreme right.
