An unverified view by anonymous artist displaying a colorful village situated along a riverbank… in the distance atop a mountain is seen a large fort and architectural ruins. The work was consigned as a view of West Point from Cold Harbor however it may well be a fantasy picture. We looked at views of Fort Clinton, and the Ruins of Fort Putnam…even Bannerman Castle. We can only present this folky pictures as an unknown location.
