專家說明
In 1868, American geologist Clarence King discovered Lake Marian in northeastern Nevada, commissioning Gilbert Munger to record the locale in oil with topographical accuracy. Now known as Overland Lake, Munger painted at least four versions of the present scene. According to Michael D. Schroeder and J. Gray Sweeney, the present painting is the largest of these works and one of his most compelling in its poetic use of light (Gilbert Munger: Quest for Distinction, Afton, Minnesota, 2003, p. 47).
