This book is about the private collection of Lyman Orton, proprietor of The Vermont Country Store. The book was written to accompany the first comprehensive public exhibition in the summer and fall of 2023 of his collection of paintings, prints, and drawings of Vermont, with a focus on the artists working in Vermont between 1920 and 1960.
The talk will include reading from the book – a selection from the first few pages of Chapter One –The Artists and Origins of The Lyman Orton Collection.
There will be a Q&A section after the talk along with light refreshments. See the Library's website for more information. https://dorsetvillagelibrary.org/
