I added a section on Kensett's monumental painting of Mount Washington from 1851. The material is also in White Mountain art. I'm open to discussion about such duplication of material. I felt it added to the article, since this painting is so typical of Kensett's early work. JJ23:21, 20 December 2005 (UTC)Reply

I have concerns about stating that Mount Washington from the Valley of Conway is in the collection of Wellesley College. There is a continuing controversy about this, and, until resolved, I suggest the reference be deleted from the caption. In the 1980 exhibition at UNH, The White Mountains: Place and Perceptions, it is stated, I believe correctly, that the Wellesley College painting is dated 1869, not 1851. (When I viewed this painting at Wellesley college in the late 1990s, it was dated 1869.) Also, I quote form the description in the catalog to the exhibition: "Kensett painted this exact replica of his famous view, now lost, which was engraved for the American Art Union in 1851." If others have insight into this issue, or disagree with me, please respond here before adding ownership information to the caption. JJ (talk) 13:03, 15 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
