Oil on panel, unsigned, titled on the reverse. 14 x 20 in., 18 x 24 in. (frame).Note: The summit of Mt. Washington in New Hampshire's White Mountains was developed in the mid-nineteenth century into one of the first tourist destinations in the country. Bridle and walking paths were cut through the landscape to reach two hotels, the Summit House and Tip-Top House. Summit House opened in 1852 with accommodations for sixty guests and a dining room that could serve one-hundred and fifty. In 1869, a cog railway began operating and a railroad station and a train shed was built in 1870. Summit House became a very popular vacation destination, attracting artists who came to paint and photograph the spectacular views and natural surroundings.
