Description
Dramatic view of a typical New England church silhouetted against a setting or rising sun and a swirl of cloud, painted by American artist and illustrator Newell Convers Wyeth (1882-1945) in 1936. Built in 1817, the Second Baptist Ridge Church still stands in Martinsville, Maine, looking much the same from the outside as it did when Wyeth painted it, although the interior has been horribly modernised. Both Newell and his son, the artist Andrew Wyeth (1917-2009), painted views of the church a number of times, though this one remains the best-known.
