This painting is a puzzle. It is signed in black block letter “BLANCH” and similarly written on back of canvas. This not the usual signature of Arnold Blanch which includes his first name and is written in cursive. Style of painting and the style of the signature (block letters in black) is more like that of Charles Rosen. The house shown may be one of the houses in Woodstock occupied by Blanch. We welcome help from anyone who has a suggestion of what is going on. Thanks to Tom Wolf.

An important example of American Barbizon, "The Departure of the Mayflower" won a medal when it was displayed in the fine art galleries of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, where it was identified as "The Return of the Mayflower." The left half of the painting can be seen on the bottom row to the far right in a photograph that was published in William Walton's World's Columbian Exposition; Art and Architecture. The artist put on the present oak frame for the 1913 traveling exhibition "Paintings by Alexander Harrison and Birge Harrison;" it retains multiple shipping labels from that tour. The simple black molding conforms with those on frames described by Harrison in "On Framing Pictures," a chapter in his book, Landscape Painting. Identical frames may be seen in period photographs of Harrison's art as it was hung at Jane and Ralph Radcliffe-Whitehead's Santa Barbara home, Arcady and their Byrdcliffe home, White Pines.
