We would like to thank Nancy Weekly, Burchfield Scholar at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, for her assistance with cataloguing this lot.

On the same day he executed Mid-Afternoon, the artist recorded in his journal: "How the hot noon sun pours down on the glaring crimson roses./A heat withered leaf falling in a sun-hazed forest –/Stars zigzagging above the lightning -lit horizon with its jagged border of black trees –/Poplars dying in the noon heat-haze —(Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, Vol. 27B “Extra,” July 6, 1916, p. 66)
