This image appears to be a mixed media piece combining drawing and illustration with text and mapping elements. On the left side of the picture, there is a colored sketch of a landscape which is predominantly in shades of yellow, green, brown, and black, suggesting fields and open countryside with lines that might represent fences or property boundaries. There's a small structure or house drawn in near the horizon line. The right side of the image features a large, triangular, curtain-like form in shades of white and beige, with pencil or charcoal shading, creating a sense of depth and fabric folds. This three-dimensional representation intersects with the landscape, creating a juxtaposition of the drawn countryside and the fabric's texture. The bottom part of the piece shows part of a map with annotations, lines, and figures that seem to reference the locations and scales, along with handwritten notes indicating something about 'RUNNING FENCE', 'PROJECT FOR SONOMA COUNTY' and 'STATE OF CALIFORNIA'. The text is mixed in orientation, with some writing aligned to the landscape and fabric representation, and some aligned with the map's orientation, which suggests that there might be a conceptual or planning purpose behind this artwork, possibly discussing a physical installation or an environmental art piece. Additionally, there are various handwritten notes and mathematical calculations scattered across the image, adding to the overall conceptual and planning nature of the work.

In the lower portion of the image, there is a detailed map labeled "Running Fence Project for Sonoma County and Marin County, State of California," showing the proposed path of the fence. Handwritten notes, measurements, and specifications are scattered throughout the image, providing a sense of scale and logistical details for the installation. The artistic rendering captures both the aesthetic vision of the project and its integration into the landscape, showcasing the complex planning behind the creation of such a large environmental artwork.

This appears to be a conceptual artwork or planning sketch titled "Running Fence." The main image shows a landscape drawing with rolling hills rendered in yellows and grays, featuring a white fence or barrier running across the terrain. The drawing style is loose and expressive, using what appears to be charcoal or graphite with some color. At the bottom of the image, there's a topographical map showing what seems to be an area in California, as indicated by text that mentions "Sonoma County and Marin County (State of California)." The drawing appears to be a preliminary study or project proposal, with some technical notes and measurements written at the top and bottom of the page. This is likely related to Christo and Jeanne-Claude's famous "Running Fence" installation from 1976, which was a 24.5-mile-long art installation that ran through Sonoma and Marin counties in California. The artwork consisted of a white nylon fence that crossed the landscape, creating a striking visual intervention in the natural terrain. The sketch effectively captures the undulating nature of the California landscape and how the fence would interact with the topography of the area.
