The Lieutenant River is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed April 1, 2011〕 tidal river located in Old Lyme, Connecticut. It joins the Connecticut River in the estuary, just above the point where that river flows into Long Island Sound. The river has a popular public boat launch and is a popular fishing spot.〔http://www.lisrc.uconn.edu/coastalaccess/site.asp?siteid=585〕 The Lieutenant River is probably most notable for its continuing popularity among artists and photographers. A number of noted American impressionist artists, including Childe Hassam, painted views of the river while staying at the Florence Griswold House in Old Lyme.〔http://www.florencegriswoldmuseum.org/learning/foxchase/html/griswold_house_outside_river.php〕〔http://bmcgurgan.wordpress.com/2009/04/20/lieutenant-river-sketches〕 The Florence Griswold Museum was designed with windows that have sweeping views of the Lieutenant River.〔The Griswold Celebrates New Space and New Art , William Zimmer, June 30, 2002, New York Times http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9900EEDB143EF933A05755C0A9649C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all〕 ==See also== *List of rivers of Connecticut 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lieutenant River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
