The photographic mural of a maple sugar making scene by artist Norman Rockwell is hanging again in a hall of the Vermont Department of Agriculture. Rockwell created the black and white image of a sugar house with smoke coming from its chimney with people checking sap buckets after becoming friends with Henry Fairfax Ayers, once the chairman of the Vermont Sugar Makers Association.The mural, created in the late 1940s, was moved to the Rockwell Museum in Rutland in 1987 while the building was undergoing renovations.(AP Photo/Toby Talbot)
