Lehman's Pond . Haycock Mountain . Watercolor . 16" x 12"

... Edward Lehman was a great illustrator and my mentor. He had a wonderfully secluded old farm & this, his pond just below the studio, was one of the most peaceful spots on earth. This view is from a small feeder stream that flows out of the woods and opens into the 3 acre pond, located toward the right.

Unfortunately, the JFK Library removed images of interior illustrations from the series of watercolors of restored White House rooms, commissioned by Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy and published as the official White House Christmas Cards during the term of President and Mrs. John F. Kennedy. However, you can still follow this link, to a watercolor Ed did of the White House Treaty Room in 1962.
