| Medium: | oil on canvas |
| Size: | 20 x 36 in. (51 x 91 cm) |
| Inscription: | l/l "F Schafer" in the artist's characteristic block-letter hand |
| Verso: | l/c "Mt. Tamalpais from Ross Valley Cal." in the artist's characteristic hand in black brush |
| Provenance: | To private collection, Tacoma, Washington, c. 1900; by descent to private collection, Washington, in 1940; by descent to private collection, Port Angeles, Washington, in 1969. |
| Citations: | Personal communication, 2007. |
| Site: | View from the south of Mount Tamalpais, in Marin County, California, probably from Frank's Valley rather than Ross Valley. |
| Note: | The reported verso inscription is puzzling. Ross Valley is north of Mount Tamalpais, but the painting is of the mirror-image, southern profile of the mountain. Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [1], Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [2], Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [3], and Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [4] share this same mistitling; Evening on Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [1] and Evening on Mount Tamalpais from Ross Valley, California [2] share the title but are views from the North, as one would expect. |
| Identification: | Title from verso inscription. |
| In index(es): | Title list, Mount Tamalpais |
