Hetch Hetchy Valley, California

My name is Isabella, and I will be your guide today through one of our most impressive paintings: Hetch Hetchy Valley, California. nn This painting shows us a beautiful place called Yosemite. Have you ever been to Yosemite? It's full of giant mountains and beautiful trees! nn This painting is really, really old. It was painted sometime between 1800 and 1900! That's over 100 years ago! Can you believe that? nn The artist used paint brushes and colors to make the trees look so tall and the river look so real. What do you think the artist saw when they looked at this place? nn
