    This photograph comes from the series of images Paul Strand made for Time in New England, the 1950 book that combined his images with historical texts chosen by Nancy Newhall to create a pictorial and literary portrait of the region. Prints by Strand from the period are rare. Strand authority Anthony Montoya notes that of the seven prints of this image made by Strand in the 1940s, the one offered here is the only one signed and titled in full by the photographer. This image was also included Strand’s 1945 retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.
