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.
