Art of the White Mountains Art Exhibit Jul 14, 2012–Jul 7, 2013

“Art of the White Mountains” examines the allure of the area for artists for over a century and a half. Works ranging from exquisite sketches of the region’s flora and geological formations to panoramic vistas of the vast landscape will be featured in a selection of oil paintings, drawings, prints, watercolors, sketchbooks, photographs, and rare books. This varied material offers the opportunity to consider the changing stylistic approaches as they evolved over time from Hudson River School painters to early modernists, the influence of legends or history on choice of subject, and issues such as the rise of tourism in the area and its impact on artists.
