On the left, the bare branches of a large bush set up a circular rhythm which is picked up in the patterns of faling snow and tree branches in the rest of the picture.

22
Three WomenThree women on the porch of an old farmhouse. The youngest, probably in her early teens, swings from a pillar on the right, looking out over the landscape and across a river or mill race spanned by a green truss bridge, towards a red brick mill town with a Florentine clock tower. A large thundercloud looms in the distance. On the left, a middle-aged woman is holding up a corner of large white sheet, pinning it to a clothesline (or perhaps takiing it down, in anticipation of the storm). She is clad in scrubs or a work uniform, and partly obscured by the sheet, which fills most of the central area of the picture. Seated on the steps between them, an elderly woman looks directly out of the picture with a skeptical expression. Three Women audioAugust-1746" x 40"oil on linen panel$20,000
