Norlands is the name of a Washburn family property in Livermore Maine; it is now known as The Norlands Living History Center. Washburn spent summers there from 1904 through 1909; 1911 and 1913. In later years he was there sporadically, and in the last decades of his life he lived in an old farmhouse next door to the much larger and grander Norlands.

There are five different Norlands series; series I through IV were produced during the summers between 1905 and 1911. Series V was presumably completed by 1913. Sometimes the prints have the series identified on them next to a title written beneath the plate impression, and at times exhibition listings identify the series. However not all the Norlands Series prints in this listing can be assigned a specific series. And there are prints that clearly are in the Norlands Series that can not be assigned a title.

In the listings here, the arrangement is by series, and followed by the the remainder of the Norlands prints where the series is unknown,

Keppel 1911 lists many Norlands prints, divided into series I through IV. It is the catalogue of an exhibit in September and October 1911, so its likely that Series V was done as late as 1913. The Norlands prints contain his first drypoint landscapes.
