#TravelTuesday—Do you recognize the location depicted in this painting? Though the artist Thomas Hill is firmly identified with views of Yosemite, the distinctive double-peaked hill at the left (known as Maggies Peaks) marks this painting as a view of Lake Tahoe, and the waterfall suggests Emerald Bay. Have you had a chance to visit our exquisite neighbor to the north? [Thomas Hill (England, active United States, 1829-1908), Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, 1864, William Randolph Hearst Collection] #lacma #landscape #americanpainting #laketahoe
