Located at the south end of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the area includes high summits, forests, plateaus, and miles of streams, all of which provided the artist with a seemingly unlimited supply of motifs. Here he concentrates on a grove of aspens whose white trunks create a staccato rhythm across the scene. --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS Chamberlain, Gala, et al., In a Modern Rendering: The Color Woodcuts of Gustave Baumann : a Catalogue Raisonné.
