Rectangular color woodcut of a winter scene with people attending The Old Dutch Church in Sleepy Hollow: picture depicts a yellow, white and orange Old Dutch Church set against an olive-green sky/background and surrounded by almost leafless or bare trees; several people stand in the open door of the brick and wooden church and greet a woman and a child; to the viewer's right of the church is a cemetery located behind a wrought iron fence; the ground is covered in white snow with blue accents; to the far right of the image, a man, woman and child walk in front of the wrought iron fence toward the church; a second fence runs on the other side of the people (on the side closer to the viewer) and crosses horizontally across the image, rising into a slight arch in the center; the groundline of the church drops to meet a lowered foreground which consists of a road running at a slight angle; a polychrome stone wall separates the two levels; below the image, the artist has hand-signed "The Old Dutch Church, Sleepy Hollow. (c) James Sanford Hulme."Artwork Details
