Maine – Olsen House
What used to be an old farmhouse is now a public house museum operated by the Farnsworth Art Museum. Extraordinary artwork occupies the house, but perhaps Andrew Wyeth’s 1948 painting ‘Christina’s World’ is the most famous. The painting, along with other works by Wyeth, was influenced by the home itself and the farmstead setting.
