Charles E. Burchfield (1893-1967)

[inscription reads] jumped up spasmodically from the ground like a playfull (sic) kitten! / Work in afternoon consequently irksome. / At 3:30 Thru (sic) Park. Sunlight on shiny branches – spiderwebs. Sunlight remote - a thin sparkle - a silvery momentary sparkle -a thin glinty flash thru (sic) the sparkled air - falling on grass it looks like white blades - chunky leaf rippled Grunplatz - I sit on bench & sketch. What leafy trees remain - silver pop¬lars & willows - are whitened by a flurry breeze
