Artist's Description
In 1887, siblings John and Lydia Morris built Compton, their summer home. Over barren hillsides, they created a splendid landscape.devoted to Victorian ideals of beauty and knowledge, and featured plants collected on their extensive travels. The Log Cabin on this property was used by the Morrises to entertain friends. Lydia spent many hours on the porch contemplating the stream and woodlands. With its river-stone cobble chimney, this cabin was similar to the style often built in the Adirondacks -- a vacation spot for the Morrises.
