| | FREDERICK RONDEL 1826 |
 | | Rondel was living in Boston, where he was a lithographer and painter. |
 | | While The Picnic was never exhibited by Rondel, it is among his best genres scenes, quite similar to his A Hunting Party in the Woods, In the Adirondack, NY State [sic] (1857, The Adirondack Museum, Blue Mountain Lake, N.Y.), which was probably also done as a commission. |
 | | Rondel has included himself leaning against a tree, serenely observing the families activities; a part of the scene, yet not active in it. |
