Art on an Envelope!

The Yosemite

by Albert Bierstadt.

Mr. Beirstadt was already a famous artist when he fell in love with a very young Rosalie Osborn, granddaughter of one of Waterville's earliest and most prosperous settlers, Amos Osborn.

The Osborns lived in a large house that stood where the Green Acres Plaza is, now. The original homestead - a small frame building - had been moved to the side and rear of the house lot and Rosalie's father had it made into a studio for his son-in-law, the artist.

Two of the paintings created there now hang in the Rotunda of the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.
