  Cropsey's many paintings in his native New York and near his home in northern New Jersey are usually studies in color rather than the drama of topography or water and sky. This scene of man's orderly existence can still be found throughout this relatively rural area, sheltered by the terrain from the megalopolis.
  This image is an example of how the taking the artist's perspective can create an extraordinary view out of a seemingly ordinary place.
