Summary
This painting clearly exemplifies Frieseke's method, which he succinctly explained to Clara MacChesney: "If you are looking at a mass of flowers in the sunlight out of doors you see a sparkle of spots of different colors-then paint them that way." It was Frieseke's dealer and friend Robert Macbeth who, at the artist's request, chose this painting to be presented to the Academy. (Source: Google Arts & Culture)
