Description
English:

A row of six apple trees with leafy branches, ranging in size, grows at the edge of an expanse of grass and in front of a studio building.

Aspet is associated with Augustus Saint-Gaudens’s professional and creative accomplishments relating to his main vocation, sculpture; his role in the establishment of the Cornish Colony; and his landscape designs at Aspet. A line of apple trees was planted down the slope from the Hay Barn Studio, oriented north-south, prior to 1903, before the building was replaced by the Little Studio. It appears to have remained throughout the period of significance, even after the construction of the adjacent Little Studio. The park replaced several of the apple trees in the late 1980s. Several mixed age trees exist today and the north-south planting pattern is not as strict as when they were originally planted. One tree dates to the period of significance and has been propagated for eventual replacement.
