Note: The subject of this block print is identified in "Landmarks: 40 Prints from 40 Years of Printmaking" as the house at the entrance to the Newry Mine in Maine. The authors noted that the, "... house is typical of the Maine country dwelling where the living quarters is connected to a woodshed which in turn leads to the barn. Thus, the farmer need not brave the extreme cold to care for his livestock."
