Couch On The Porch, Cos Cob
Frederick Childe Hassam
American Impressionist
1859~1935
You may catch me here..........if not, walk through
the garden, perhaps you'll find me cutting a bunch
of something pretty, getting my hands dirty pulling
the weeds, watering thirsty plants, checking the
upcoming harvest of soon-to-be-ripe figs.
Childe Hassam's body of work is amazing. Although perhaps best known for his 'flag paintings', to me his Summer paintings, many of the New England shore and Isles of Shoals, close to where I lived for several years before coming south, are my favorites.
Here is a link to reproduction paintings available online - type Hassam in the search bar to see his work.
