About Artwork: (1872) "In 1874, Thomas Kensett presented the Museum with thirty-eight paintings found in the studio of his brother, John Frederick Kensett, after his death. Since Kensett executed most of them just prior to his death in the summer of 1872, the paintings are known collectively as "The Last Summer's Work." The paintings were exhibited at the National Academy of Design in the spring of 1873 during the large auction sale of Kensett's work. The Museum also exhibited the pictures for a number of years before selling half, leaving nineteen in the collection today. In this unfinished painting, Kensett explores the rich autumn colors of the marshlands near Contentment Island. Similar in composition to "Newport Rocks" (74.6), this painting exemplified the economy of composition that distinguishes Kensett's most effective works." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
