Beside the Pacific, dating to 1922, is the artist’s stock #471 as listed by another photogravure example on Japanese gampi paper seen in this archive. This view shows a cypress tree, with the Pacific Ocean beyond, taken along the famed Seventeen Mile Drive on the Monterey, California coastline. The work is hand-colored, with the addition of “stars” in “night” sky, and may be what the artist described as a “miniature print”. The date of this print may also date a bit later, to 1926, when Wheeler exhibited some of her photographs from Atmospheric Studies (1.)  at Paul Elder & Company, a San Francisco bookseller & publisher. A review of this show brings up the aforementioned “miniature prints”:

A painter turned photographer will occupy the attention of the visitors at the Paul Elder Gallery October 25 to November 6. Miss Cleora Clark Wheeler, of St. Paul, Minnesota, gained a reputation as a painter before she took up photography as her medium. As a result, her prints have a feeling of conscious design and a quality of painting. Those exhibited at Paul Elder’s will be some of her atmospheric studies of California scenes and a group of miniature prints from copper plates. (2.) 

The following was a description of Wheeler’s miniature prints that accompanied the 1922 St. Paul show Atmospheric Studies:
