George Inness, Durham, Connecticut. The subject of this oil painting by George Inness is a verdant green scene with a large tree and grassy foreground landscape. A small patch of blue sky is visible in the upper right corner. Inness was very influential to the artists of the Lyme Art Colony, particularly in the style of Tonalist painting favored by many in the early 1900s. This painting is now in the collection of the Florence GRiswold Museum.
