Description
English: Boughton was the son of a Norwich farmer who was taken to America while still an infant. He initially opened a studio in Albany, New York, listing himself as a landscape painter. He eventually settled in London where he produced historical genre scenes, many of which were set in New England. In this autumnal scene of the English Regency, a young couple is seated at the fork of diverging paths, an ominous sign for their future.
