Featured Artwork: Early Sugaring #1

RSW's Diary Comments

“Painted circa 1920. One of my very early canvases. Among a lot bought by J. H. Miller Co. of Springfield, it was bought from them around 1935-36 and now owned by F. Earl Williams, at present (1944) principal of the High School at Gardner (19 Cherry Street). A sugar maple in woodland on a rocky knoll painted at “Uncle” Will Wells’s sugar house on the Buckland –S.F. road A later canvas of Harrison Keach’s sugar house I see was given the same title (owned by the E. H. Naylor children) so I have added the #1 and #2 to the titles.”
