"Doon from Mussoorie, Uttar Pradesh, India" is an 1878 painting by Marianne North.
The artwork depicts a landscape view from a high vantage point, likely a mountaintop, overlooking a valley and distant mountains. The foreground is filled with lush, green vegetation, including various trees and shrubs. A winding path is visible, suggesting a trail through the hillside.
In the mid-ground, the valley unfolds, showing more vegetation and hints of human settlement, possibly small villages or farms.
The background features a hazy, bluish expanse of mountains extending to a distant horizon, where a body of water, possibly a lake or sea, is visible. The sky is a pale, light blue, suggesting a calm and possibly hazy atmosphere. The overall style is realistic, capturing the details of the vegetation and the atmospheric perspective of the landscape. The painting is held at the Herbarium Complex, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
