Twilight settles over Chain of Ponds, a calm lake ringed by forest and low hills in western Maine. The sunset sky and its reflection light the water while rocky ground and small shrubs frame the foreground. The caption places the scene on the Arnold Trail, the route Benedict Arnold's expedition followed toward Quebec in 1775.
