In 1907, Fred Holland Day brought a young male model to a rocky outcrop on the edge of the Frederick Ames estate in Easton, Massachusetts.  The photographs would place Nicholas Giancola as Orpheus, nude and holding a lyre, in front of a small cave formed by large boulders. These rocks and the hill they were set on were known as “Stone House Hill” because of the idea that Native American Sachem Metacomet of Pokanoket had occupied them as a dwelling in the 17th century (though no proof exists). Ames had named his recently completed estate (ca 1905) “Stone House Hill House”, after this formation on the south-eastern line of his property. In 1948, Stonehill College would open on the land, naming itself after Ames’ estate. Currently, the rocks have been graffitied, and the paths have become overgrown. This small series reimagines Day’s “Orpheus” pictures and their relationship to the place where I have worked for the last two decades.  The images combine multiple techniques, including cyanotype, inkjet prints, and the Ziatype (a variation of the platinum process that Day used extensively). They are all unique images contact-printed onto 22×30” cotton rag paper.
