DescriptionWatercolor on paper. Paper has rough cut edges. Horizontal watercolor on paper. In center is a brown wooden barrack or shed that appears to be a work station (blacksmith?). The front door is open and you see a man working over a 3-leg stool or table. Behind him is a red flame on a pedestal fixture. Just outside the door are 2 large rings (for barrels?) to the left and stacks of lumber to the right. In the foreground are dark images of stacked boxes and round barrels. There are power lines behind the building and blue/gray mountains. The sky is dark gray. A few touches of green for trees in background and ground near the building. A sign on the building says "DANGER KEEP OUT."
