Haystack Mountain from Littleton, New Hampshire

A pen-and-ink sketch by Daniel Huntington capturing Haystack Mountain's distinctive conical peak rising above the surrounding landscape. The artist has rendered the mountain's form with economical line work, suggesting rocky slopes and forested foothills through careful variation in mark-making. Huntington's notation on the page documents the specific vantage point—from Littleton—establishing this as a studied observation from nature. The sketch exemplifies nineteenth-century American landscape practice, where artists recorded regional geology and topography as both artistic subjects and geological documentation.
