RSW's Diary Comments
• Woodward did not keep records of the pastels he called "chalk drawings."
Additional Notes
The following provenance is from a woman who
visited RSW and saw him working on this painting:
"The Hills of Cummington was the view from my grandfather's house which is now a summer music school. It was a pastel study for an oil that my grandfather decided not to commission.
Regards, xxx"
