RSW's Diary Comments
"Painted in 1942. Painting of the south view of the Heath Pasture---done from the front windows of the Pasture House---the right hand ledges showing and the young birch---but not the beech tree. November coloring. Beautiful opalescent sky. Bought by Mr. and Mrs. Roger Fenn, for the Fenn School, Concord, Mass., in April, 1951, (through Dr. Lunt)".
