Old Mill, Worthington, Mass by Robert Emmett Owen

The structures depicted here are in all likelihood those of the Theron Higgins Mill located alongside the Little River in Worthington, MA. They’re rendered in a somewhat telescopic view so as to compress a nearly impossible number of scenic elements: river, dam, bridge, buildings, and several layers of foliage receding into the distance. Thick brushstrokes of vivid fall colors, arranged in bold masses, are typical of Owen’s painting style.
