Summary
| Description |
English: This painting of Mount McKinley, renamed Denali by the U.S. Interior Department in August 2015, was done by Sydney Laurence. The foreground of the painting features several half-barren trees stretching almost the entire height of the canvas. Shadows fill the foreground but the sun continues to illuminate Denali, which fills the entire background. An American artist, Laurence was primarily a tonalist painter who settled in Alaska as an adult and became a prolific painter of the Alaskan wilderness. |
