"Capri, 1904 (from Sketchbook)" is a pencil drawing on paper by American artist Mary Newbold Sargent. The drawing, made during a visit to the Italian island of Capri, depicts a landscape of two mountainous islands in the distance, rendered in a minimalist style, with the horizon line dividing the composition. Sargent is known for her travel sketches and watercolors, which often captured the beauty of landscapes and seascapes around the world. This drawing, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, provides a glimpse into the artist's unique perspective and her fascination with the natural world.
