20th Century Vermont Artists are having a moment… Many of the artists/ founders of the Southern Vermont Arts Center are newly examined and appreciated thanks to the Lyman Orton “For the Love of Vermont” collection at the beautiful new building at SVAC. This Estate auction from a pair of sophisticated collectors who have loved this artwork and collected it seriously for 40 years is your chance to acquire beautiful paintings by many of the same artists that are featured in the FLOV collection. We are selling 37 – selected paintings, all beautifully framed and ready to hang in new homes or collections. Still very affordable, this category will only increase in value as time passes. Not unlike “The Hudson River School”, The Pennsylvania Impressionists of the “New Hope School”, the “Maine Artists”, Ashcan School, The Cape Ann Artists, etc. The Southern Vermont Artists are absolutely on the rise. The exhibition and the book are bringing awareness and interest in this work. This Estate Auction presents a unique opportunity. Don’t miss out!
