Based on unpublished letters and paintings, the author discusses the evolution of the summer colony from the arrival in 1873 of the noted writer and reformer Edward Everett Hale to the outbreak of World War II, and defines their work within the context of American art. "A Sense of Place: Painters of Matunuck, Rhode Island, 1873-1941" makes a significant contribution to the scholarship of American art, nineteenth-century art colonies, and American studies.
