Mountain rising above farm fields and farmhouse, circa 1910

About this postcard

A large, rounded, densely wooded mountain dominates the view, with cleared pasture and cultivated fields sloping down toward the foreground, where a small white farmhouse and outbuildings sit among scattered trees. The photograph is a sepia-toned real photo print with no printed caption, so the peak and locality are not identified on the card; the scene is typical of early 20th-century rural mountain farming in the eastern United States.
