Description
The Stove In The Cabin is a sepia tone photographic art print of a pot belly stove. The setting is the Sharlot Hall Museum in Prescott, Arizona. This pot belly stove is located in one of the restored log buildings that was one of the original structures in Prescott. I used a sepia tone finish on the photograph for that old rustic look. The sepia brown tones originated with film photography as part of the process to develop the prints in the 1800’s. Today, we can recreate that same vintage look digitally.

Oh, does this bring back memories! About 1958 my husband and I went up to the Caribou, in British Columbia, with our 3 very small children. Our precosious youngest was just learning to walk. The winters, up there, get to be 30* Below Zero, days and nights! This appears to look exactly like the wood stove that we heated our little house with. We were up there for 2 years. We were very young, had wonderful friends up there (and still do) and survived very nicely. V/F

Hi Kirt. When we had 3 very small children and we went to Canada to help my dad out on the ranch (our youngest child was just starting to walk). Our little cabin was insulated with wood shavings and this looks just like the Pot belly stove we had that heated our little 2 story cabin. I get too warm so easily that refused to cook on a wood stove, so my Dad bought me a fancy electric stove with 2 ovens and the Dr. (friend) called it Donavon's Brain! What a contrast! We were 300 miles NE of Vancouver with 40 below weather. And, I took my "Born Salesman" husband and children up there! It was a wonderful 2 years before we had to foreclose on our house in CA. and return, his sales job waiting for him. I like this image! Well done! V/F
