Along Lower Pleasant Valley road in Cambridge there are a number of stunning views of Mount Mansfield. Every Autumn / Early Winter there is a time when there is and early snow while there is still color in the trees. That sets up this wonderful view of the cool blue and warm orange with the backdrop of the mountain. Without the pop of orange this painting has less interest. The stubble of haying rows adds a nice linear dimension that leads the ey into the painting. It just looks good!
