Puzzle Franklin Carmichael’s Mirror Lake

Franklin Carmichael (Canadian, 1890–1945)
Mirror Lake, 1929

The absolute stillness of a summer afternoon is magically represented in Franklin Carmichael’s waterscape. The reflections of the hillsides, trees, and promontories on the lake’s surface create a semi-abstract compostion while imparting a sense of transcendent calm—a perfect image for a relaxing, puzzling afternoon of your own.
