Description
The New year had arrived at Motif #1 in Rockport harbor. The Christmas wreath is still on the side of the building. Motif Number 1 is a fishing shack well known to students of art and art history as "the most often-painted building in America. Built in the 1840s as Rockport became home to a colony of artists and fishermen, the shack became a favorite subject of painters due to the composition and lighting of its location as well as being a symbol of New England maritime life.
