I e-mailed my trusty English friend and he has done some research for us all. Thanks, over there!
He has unearthed a photo of the place from 1965 showing the building above in this landscape, although from a different angle. It is more like what Seago painted, but not a barn. So, who knows? My English confidante also sent a pair of Seago pictures which look to be the same location, one with a house and one without. I believe they do illustrate Seago slicing and dicing out there. Now you see it, now you don't

Deb;
At least you are alive! Rattle your cup! All I hear is the echoing clatter of my little black obsidian tassel loafers on the corrugated steel floors in here.
