=thatch roof is placed but a few feet from a smooth pond which is full of color. In parts it takes green reflecftions from tbe luxuriant verdure of its banks, elsewbere is partly filled in witb mosses and weeds that grow in its sluggish water, and against mirrors a corner of tbe farmbouse, a detached tree at tbe border of the water, or becomes a silvery-gray and white where it reflects tbe bright sky. The sky is a clear, brilliant blue, though obscured by soft white clouds which here and there are touched with pink and yellow. To right of the house, green and yellow fields extend invitingly toward a far horizon. The pond is the same into which, on anotber side, the ancient Criqueboeuf church, as Mrs. Martin says, "dips its foot". The canvas is one of the last which Martin painted. Signed at the lower right, H. D. Martin, 1895. First owned by William T. Evans, Esq., who bought it shortly before the artists death. Later the property of the late Lyman G. Bloomingdale. PROPERTY OF MRS. L. G. BLOOMINGDALE.
