I-15, The verso of this piece has a study of a standing figure depicted on it. This piece has been removed from its original mount of the scrapbook., The drawing depicts four mountains with a river below. In his autobiography Lord Lorne wrongly identifies similar views as the Four Sisters on the Fraser River, however, the 'Three Sisters is not on the Fraser River, the Four Brothers is. (See Passages from the Past Vol. II facing pp. 482 and 484.) On the verso is a loose sketch of a standing figure., The work is soiled and the surface is buckled from having been glued down. There are several pinholes along the upper edge. There are also glue and paper remnants on the verso.
