Strawbery Banke Portsmouth
Strawbery Banke Portsmouth
24x36x1.5 Acrylic
Strawbery Banke is the oldest neighborhood in New Hampshire to be settled by Europeans, and the earliest neighborhood remaining in the present-day city of Portsmouth. It features more than 37 restored buildings built between the 17th and 19th centuries in the Colonial, Georgian and Federal style architectures. The darkest colored house is the oldest house in the group.
The buildings once clustered around a way of life in the beautiful city of Portsmouth. It looks like a cold day in this piece. I have warmed up the deep colors with bits of orange and a splash of pink.
