RSW's Diary Comments

"Donec turpis urna, consequat eget accumsan id, tincidunt in sapien. Aliquam imperdiet risus in tortor suscipit, sed malesuada ligula consequat. Nam feugiat viverra quam id sagittis. Curabitur egestas vel metus ornare fermentum. Phasellus mattis, nulla vitae condimentum fermentum, nisi diam dapibus nunc, at consectetur est felis posuere eros."

Editor's Note:

Suspendisse potenti. Vestibulum sollicitudin mollis ipsum, vitae egestas nisl tempus sed. Proin vel nulla leo. Morbi fringilla porta dui eu scelerisque. Nunc non lobortis nulla.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Curabitur egestas nibh ut purus posuere, vitae fringilla orci dignissim. Etiam tincidunt odio ut ante vestibulum hendrerit. Donec a justo risus. Duis eget congue arcu. Aliquam congue scelerisque diam eu lobortis. Quisque non nunc quis dui pellentesque lacinia sed et nibh. In vitae varius erat. In congue dapibus rhoncus. Ut eget semper quam, vel viverra metus. Suspendisse euismod leo non sagittis sagittis. Ut faucibus, quam ac malesuada posuere, felis erat tristique sapien, sed scelerisque neque ipsum et velit. Aliquam in libero erat. Mauris iaculis ante a velit rhoncus feugiat. Vivamus faucibus non justo vel iaculis.



Additional Notes

Springfield Union, July 6, 1940

"Robert Strong Woodward's Abandoned Pastures, is admitted to be one of the most striking paintings that has ever been hung in Hall Tavern. Titles of paintings are often far removed from the significance of the subject but this picture depicts just what the name implies. The scene is a sweeping mountain pasture in early fall, and away off in the distance is range after range of distant mountains and hills."


A chalk drawing named Where Four Stone Walls Used to Meet was later made of this scene from a different vantage point and is privately owned. For more about the Heath, MA pasture and the studio Woodward built there, see our Scrapbook page devoted to the Heath Pasture Studio.

Ut eget semper quam, vel viverra metus. Suspendisse euismod leo non sagittis sagittis. Ut faucibus, quam ac malesuada posuere, felis erat tristique sapien, sed scelerisque neque ipsum et velit.
