Our Fine Art Auction has expanded to a 2-day event being held Thursday, December 7th and Friday, December 8th at 10:00 AM. Day 1 features a diverse selection of paintings, prints, and sculptures from renowned artists. One highlight is an exceptional oil on canvas by Pennsylvania Impressionist Edward Willis Redfield, an atmospheric winter landscape with a woman and child in a red hat returning home. Redfield's fluid brushwork masterfully renders the dappled light filtering through bare trees.
