DescriptionA stone wall encircles a pasture. The far side of the field is bound by a wooden fence rather than stone. In front of the wall the ground is covered in ferns and other wild greenery. The pasture inside the wall is filled with tall grasses. There are several trees in the distance, beyond the fence. The place depicted was on the property of the Cheney Family vacation home in Marlborough, CT.
