Best remembered for capturing the varied views and seasonal moods of New England, Allen found inspiration among the region's quaint coastal fishing villages, numerous farmsteads, and grand mountain vistas, as seen in Mt. Monadnock, New Hampshire. From the icy blue river, bare forests, bright snow, and clear blue sky, he perfectly captured the essence of New England winter.
