This painting really captures the dark air that fills its space – the eye has to strain a bit just as in real twilight.  

Some typical Hudson River School elements like the dramatic sky and dead tree are set against banal present-day objects at the edge of a parking lot.  

This particular lot was at the Superfresh near Lionville, but the store had closed up before the painting got on any wall – Modern Life won’t even hold still long enough for me to make fun of it!
