Landscape (from McGuire Scrapbook) 1908

"Landscape (from McGuire Scrapbook)" is a charcoal drawing on paper by American artist James Henry Moser, created in 1908. The small-scale work, measuring 3 3/8 x 6 1/8 inches, depicts a serene woodland scene with a single, tall pine tree standing out against a backdrop of a shadowy forest and a hazy sky. The drawing's simplicity and understated beauty evoke a sense of tranquility and the quiet solitude of nature, characteristic of Moser's landscape art. This work, currently held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offers a glimpse into Moser's artistic style and the captivating charm of American landscapes.
