OCTOBER IN BUCKLAND

25 X 30
Painted in Buckland Center on Charlemont Road looking toward the Mary Lyon Church.
 

Diary Comments:
“Painted Oct. 1943.   A painting of village maples in full autumn color, showing the white Buckland church at the  end of a sagging road tucked in the trees.   From this painting I made a chalk drawing. Painting taken down to  Kendricks and Clapps in S.F. in late November for a weekend for them to see and while there it was bought by Miss Bertha Temple of Torrington, Connecticut,  and taken to her home.  Very popular canvas among friends and visitors while I had it, which was only a few weeks”

Notes:
Painting is now in Alabama.
