Charles E. Burchfield (1893-1967), Autumn to Winter, 1964-66; watercolor on joined paper, 50 x 75 inches; Private Collection, Image courtesy of the Burchfield Penney Archives
Hoary Frost – Brilliant morning – The smell of “cooked” plants – acrid yet pleasantly nostalgic. Still in my thoughts each autumn I am trying to trace down the memory of dry bean pods, sunlit in some field.
