Northwest Vermont's premier art gallery, Gallery at Village Frame Shoppe, has recently acquired from a private collection a one-of-a-kind original acrylic on panel by world-class, Vermont artist Fred Swan. Titled "Winter Light", this painting has hung in a private collection for nearly thirty years, and has only recently been brought out into the public for art collectors to admire. Many admirers have commented that this is one of the best paintings that Fred Swan has done to date.
"Winter Light" by Fred Swan, captures the beauty of the New England countryside in a way that only Fred Swan can do. The image is bathed in early morning, winter light, as the sun quietly rises on another cool, New England morning. Shadows from a nearby maple tree dance across the snow as the light illuminates the beautiful two-and-a-half story stone house and hooked-together barn. Tracks left from autumn's last cut of hay, can be seen peeking through where the wind has blown the powder snow down back towards the forest.
Fred Swan is a self-taught artist with no formal art training. His work has captivated art enthusiasts for nearly forty years and appears in many private and corporate collections both nationally and internationally. The Gallery at Village Frame Shoppe is proud to be an art dealer for Fred Swan's original paintings, limited edition prints and giclees. The Gallery at Village Frame Shoppe also features artwork by other well known and much collected Vermont artists including Corliss Blakely, Peter Miller, John Clarke Olson, Eric Tobin among others. The Gallery is open Tuesday - Saturday 10-5 and located on Main Street in downtown St. Albans, Vermont.
