Tom's Arc

Tom’s Arc

“After featuring Tom Plant’s Goodhue and Hawkins laker in a number of paintings and prints through the years, I was interested to come across a picture of Lucknow’s boathouse in the 1925 brochure advertising the property for sale.  It was located four miles from the house by a “private wooded road” at the site of the present Ambrose Cove Marina (formerly Arey’s).  The exterior photo was uninspiring, but the arched opening with it’s glass doors was dramatic, and so I imagined what it would be like to look out from inside, maximizing that shape.  Another photo showed a pair on an aquaplane, which I show to the right.  They were pulled by another of Plant’s boats, an Elco launch, part of which shows in the other slip.  The final element was the morning sunlight thru the windows hitting the dock and canoe, which provided a needed point of interest in the otherwise dark interior.”
