"Horizon of Heath. 27 X 30, Fall of 1947. The beech tree in Heath, with a band of deep blue hills back of it and scrubby pasture with gray ledges and pasture road in foreground. Painted in early October, just a flush of fall color in the blue hills. Beach tree tawny and browning; foreground yellow and browned, and ochre, with just touches of dull red foreground grass pale ochre. The sky (3/4 of the canvas) a tangled mass of gray autumn clouds, with just a few small patches of blue showing. Sold, January, 1951 to Dr. and Mrs. William B. Terhune, New Canaan,. CT.
