In 1885 a young artist and his family rented an old farm house in Cornish NH, meanwhile across the river in Windsor Vt the Industrial Revolution was in full swing.  It was a time of gilded statues and massive textile mills.  It was the time for clock work machines and monumental sculpture the like the world had never seen before.
