Charles E. Burchfield (1893-1967), Rising Smoke, Feb. 22, 1917; watercolor and pencil on paper, 20 x 14 inches; Image courtesy of the Charles E. Burchfield Archives
Warm hazy day. The long dry season prevents sparkling October weather.
P.M. To Kaiser’s. Dense haze & smoke over the city. Distant buildings blued.
C - seems changed. I think he has lost some of his courage or idealism.
A fine night. Sky dappled Haze.
