James Brade Sword Art
American, 1839-1915
Philadelphia artist, James Brade Sword studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and with George Washington Nicholson, noted Philadelphia landscapist. Sword visited Conanicut Island, Rhode Island in 1881 and spent summers there, painting along the shoreline. Long Pond on Martha's Vineyard, Massachusettts, is the rare and breathtaking view depicted here, painted at the tranquil moment of dusk. Sword exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (1876-1906), in the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876 and was founder of the Art Club of Philadelphia, president of the Philadelphia Society of Artists, and the Artists' Fune Society.

Vista From West Campton, New Hampshire
By Frederick Williams
Located in Milford, NH
A fine New Hampshire landscape by American artist Frederick Dickinson Williams (1829–1915). Frederick Dickinson Williams was born into a patrician household in Boston, Massachusetts and attended the prestigious Boston Latin School before entering Harvard University in 1846. After graduation and until 1874, Williams taught drawing and painting in the Boston Public School System as a Professor of Drawing until 1874. Williams and his wife, the former Lucia M. Hunt, of Newburyport, relocated to Paris, France, where both studied the new French art and painted landscapes and genre scenes in their studio until 1888, when Lucia died in Paris.
Williams returned to the United States and settled in Boston, opening a studio in late 1888. He continued to paint in the Boston area with regular trips to the White Mountains of New Hampshire and other wilderness areas where he produced a large body of French-inspired landscapes in the manner of Corot and other contemporary French painters. In 1904, a serious fire in his Boston studio destroyed all of his inventory, including a number of award-winning canvases from his Paris sojourn. Despite this significant loss, he continued to paint. During his long and successful career, Williams exhibited his work at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, the Washington DC Art...
