This Indiana Landscape was most likely painted in Brookville, Indiana per Andrea Smith, Site Manager at T.C. Steele State Historic Site and expert on T.C. Steele.
In 1898 noted Indiana artists, J. Ottis Adams and T.C. Steele purchased the Hermitage in the Whitewater Valley near Brookville and set up their home and studios, where the Hoosier Group painted for several years. Some of Steele’s best paintings were from his time in the Whitewater Valley.
