Citation:  Stebbins, Theodore. The Life and Work of Martin Johnson Heade: A Critical Analysis and Catalogue Raisonne, cat 61. And Czestochowski, Joseph S. The American landscape tradition: a study and gallery of paintings. NY: Dutton, 1982, p. 93.
Index Words:  haystack
Place:  Rhode Island
Notes:  Seen in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in November, 2005. View of Mount Hope Bay, with a haystack very similar to the one in the 1858 sketch. This lonely stack is a hint of things to come (Stebbins). In the marsh landscapes, Heade would soon favor, the population of stacks would vary in numbers, apparent size and illumination, but their consistent shape would help provide perspectival depth into the flat tidal scenery.

Title of Work:  Marsh at dawn
Date of Work:  1859
Medium:  oil
Period/Style:  
URL:  http://www.the-athenaeum.org/art/detail.php?ID=14981
Citation:  Stebbins, Theodore. The Life and Work of Martin Johnson Heade: A Critical Analysis and Catalogue Raisonne, cat. 63, p.29.
Index Words:  haystack, dawn
Place:  Rhode Island
Notes:  Several haystacks, similar in shape, diminish in size towards a flat horizon under clouds and a pink dawn sky reflected in the standing water of the marsh. This work might be termed the dawn of Heade's marsh hay-making, 'for which he became well known and which account for nearly a quarter of his surviving oeuvre...Although he experimented for several years with other landscape themes, it was the marsh that allowed him to express best his idiosyncratic vision of the American countryside.' [Stebbins, pp.28-29]

Index Words:  haystack
Place:  Rhode Island
Notes:  This 'view of apple trees in bloom and a hayfield beyond could easily represent a [Rhode Island] landscape, as could another of the oils [in the RISD collection] with a haystack in the foreground.. The freh colors [not shown in the reproduction] and highlights of yellow and lavender enahnce the evocation of this springtime scene. Its thin paint surface suggests both the probable speed of its execution and Burleigh's experience in the watercolor technique.' RISD Bull, p. 84
