The plate was finished some years after it was begun, like Maur s Farm and some others, and the changes as between the earlier and later states were somehtingof the same kind as as in the case of that plate.

In the last two states, the softened radiance of an exceedingly beautiful sky, intensify alike the spirit of locality and dream-like remoteness which characterize the scene. Francis Comstock.
