Hedden Woods by Ferdinand G. Walker
| Description: |
Photograph of the painting Hedden Woods by Ferdinand Graham Walker, 1894. Hedden Court and Hedden Park now occupy the site of Hedden Woods. From a letter of Earl C. Walker, dated April 16, 1961: Photo of a landscape painted by my brother Ferd one afternoon about 1894. I remember his taking his kit and going over to Heddens Woods to paint this picture. The photo does not do it justice. It hangs over the mantelpiece in our living room, and I wonder why the grate fire doesnt melt the mantle of snow beneath the Beech Trees. It is too bad the City didnt buy this Beech grove and preserve it for posterity. |
