A luminous plein-air landscape by noted California painter George Bickerstaff, known for his evocative depictions of the American West. The composition features a sunlit desert road leading toward a distant snowcapped peak, rendered in Bickerstaff’s distinctive palette of violet-blue shadows and warm ochres. The foreground sagebrush and soft clouds lend depth and serenity, characteristic of his mid-century California Impressionist style.

Presented in a vintage carved gilt frame complementing the painting’s warm tones.
