Description

The central peak is Mount Cook, with Mount Dampier to the right (across the Green Saddle), and the Linda Glacier (named by Green after his wife) descending from the centre of Mount Cook. The view is probably taken from Mount Dixon. In the foreground is an ice plateau with a crevasse.

Framer's label (now discarded): 'Framed by Combridge & Co., printsellers, picture framers &c., 19 & 20 Grafton Street, Dublin'.
