I honestly didn't know he was still alive. I used to have that Christina's World print in my dorm room in college.
The next generation of Wyeths (Jamie I think) is still active painting on the Maine coast.

Those are fabulous! they remind me of Tomi Ungerer's illustrations in his book "Far out isn't far enough".

I had a book as a kid, called Hex House. I was fascinated because it was about a girl who moved into a hexagonal house.

They used Christina's World for the cover. I know I still have the book and will have to find it, I can't find anything through google.
