Taylor Sawmill, built in 1805 on Ballard Pond in Derry NH, is the only surviving up & down sawmill in NH and one of only 2 surviving up & down sawmills in the US. The mill is open and operational only in Summer and this piece was painted on Halloween - closing day of the 2004 Season - a brisk Fall afternoon with the typical New England rapid changes in weather from bright sunshine to moody clouds which make the lingering foliage appear to glow with a light of their own!
