Creator: Cole, Thomas (1801-1848)
Date: 1839 C.E.
Description: The trees are changing colors and a warm tone is throughout the painting. A small pond to the left with a house behind it. A figure is riding a horse on a path towards the house. Two figures are waiting for them by the house, one is much smaller than the other. A carriage is leaving in a different direction than the one the figure is coming in on. While there is lush forest on all sides of the family, the clearing settled in is a result of clearcutting trees. Shown by the remains of tree stumps in all corners. The White Mountains are behind and a storm is rolling in.
