"The Little Pond, Appledore" by Childe Hassam.
One of the Isles of Shoals located off the coast of Maine and New Hampshire, Appledore Island was the home of the poet Celia Thaxter and attracted numerous artists and writers to its rocky shores during the late 19th century.

Running a hotel was vastly different from keeping a #Lighthouse, which is why many on #Appledore Island thought her father was crazy. But Celia loved everything about her life at Appledore House - especially the guests & the #Garden.
One wintery morning after #Hawthorne & #Thoreau checked out, Celia took their advice & started #Writing.
"Jack Frost visited last night -
Sliding to earth on a #STAR beam,
Keen & sparkling & bright."
Note: Inspired by Celia #Thaxter
