Bartholomew Gosnold the English explorer and colonizer, sailed for the new world in 1602 and eventually landed on the coast of maine. He then worked his way south o an island near cape cod which he called Elizabeth, where he landed and built a fort. From his story, Bierstadt fashioned a remarkable oil painting, considering that it was completed a little lover a year after he returned from Europe. In it, he records his direct response to a shoreside scene , an utterly peaceful moment on a summer day a high noon.
