This is a view of the old mill house in Grovers Mill, New Jersey, from across Bear Brook. Grovers Mill is the location of the famous Martian landing in 1939, as broadcast worldwide by Orson Wells. The landing took place in what is now a park about a block away, next to Grovers Mill Pond. There is even a bronze monument to the Martians and Wells.
I painted this in 2015. Sadly, the building was converted into residential apartments since then, and lost much of its charm in the process.
