| Commentary: | “This landscape is a riot of muted reds and greens with a Van Gogh-like texture of the sky. It is a very appealing work thought to be from the first Drexel Summer School at Chadds Ford in 1898…Howard Pyle directed the students’ efforts with the hope that ‘a more open Nature might stimulate these aspirations for truth and beauty not always evoked by the walls of a school-room.'” (Drexel University Museum, 36) |
