Calderwood Neck, Vinalhaven
| This painting was inspired by a photograph taken in 1910 of the fishing schooner Rose Cabral entering Boston Harbor. She was probably from Provincetown since there is a large family of Cabral's still living there. |
| The container ship MV Skogafoss from St. John's, Newfoundland, transits the Cape Cod Canal. The Skogafoss, named after a waterfall on the south coast of Iceland, regularly repeats the same cruise track beginning and ending in Reykjavik, Iceland and typically stopping at several North American ports. The Skogafoss also serves as a volunteer research platform for NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteoroligical Laboratory. Instruments take air and water measurements every 4 hours during the ship's cruise and transmits the data back to NOA. |
| St. Ogg's was the setting for George Eliot's novel "The Mill on the Floss." She described it as "..that venerable town with the red-fluted roofs and the broad warehouse gables, where the black ships unlade themselves of their burdens from the far north, and carry away, in exchange, the precious inland products...one of those old, old towns which impress one as a continuation and outgrowth of nature.." This is what I imagine it might have looked like, although I did take the liberty of changing her boats from black to white. |
