- Description
- View of Cathedral Mountain. In the right background is the triangular shape of Cathedral Peak, with rock coloured in grey and violet-grey. Snow is coloured light blue. A horizontal range stretches away from the left side of the mountain. The range is separated from the peak by a small glacier and a line of snow extending downwards from it. The grey sky contains part of a white cloud near the glacier. In the foreground is a valley with dark blue (or green) forest and areas of light green grass. There are indications of a blue underpainting for the forests, as well as, violet underpainting for the sky.
