During his brief and celebrated career, Dennis Miller Bunker produced some of the most accomplished landscapes, still-lifes and figural paintings of his generation. He counted among his friends many of the period’s greatest artists, including John Singer Sargent, Edmund Tarbell and Thomas Wilmer Dewing. Bunker additionally studied with William Merritt Chase in New York and Jean-Leon Gérôme in Paris. Depicting a shadowy barn interior in Medfield, Massachusetts, the present work exemplifies Bunker's mastery of brushwork and light. Located southwest of Boston, Medfield was a favorite summer retreat of the artist, where he frequently visited his close friend Charles Martin Loeffler and Loeffler's future wife, Elise Fay, to whom this work is dedicated.
