Talk:The Late Christopher Bean

Paintings

An earlier editor has tagged the article as containing superfluous information. It would be hard to argue with that, but it seems a pity to obliterate some careful research, so I have moved it here:

Paintings

Over the course of the play, numerous of Christopher Bean's works are mentioned, as are some of Warren Creamer's, Ada's, and Tallant's. Here follows a list of the mentioned paintings:

Christopher Bean's paintings

• "The Hill Pasture"-a hill pasture apparently well known in the village
• "The Red Barn"-the barn in which he painted all his famous works
• "The Brick Houses"-brick houses in the vicinity of the Haggett house
• "The Covered Bridge"-a covered bridge in the village or just outside it
• "Abby"-a life-size portrait of his wife Abby, who is also the maid of the Haggett household.

Warren Creamer's paintings and drawings

• "Dead Fish"-a still life of a salmon that Warren catches several days before the Thursday that Tallant visits.
• "Dead Duck"-a still life of a dead duck.
• "Susie and Ada"-an unfinished sketch of Ada and Susie, which is torn apart by an enraged Mrs. Haggett.

Ada's paintings

• "Buttercups"-an amateur painting of what appear to be buttercups, done by Ada after a few art lessons.

Tallant's paintings

• "The Hill Pasture"- a rendering of the original Bean painting from a description in his letters to Davis. Forged by Tallant.

I hope this is OK. Tim riley (talk) 10:50, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
