Note:
In this diminutive painting, Johnston captures the large, open, pink-streaked sky over the equally impressive expanse of the Lake of the Woods. While a few of the many islands of the lake appear very close to the foreground, the great sky is the main subject of this sketch. This painting would have been executed during Johnston's time in Winnipeg in the early 1920s.
