Description

While Childe Hassam is best known for his landscapes and city scenes, he was also an accomplished still-life artist. Hassam painted only about forty still-lifes during his career, two of them during trips he made to Portland in 1904 and 1908. The painting was executed at the home of Colonel Wood and features fruit from the garden including Oregon plums.
