Celebrated New Haven artist, Winfred Rembert is well-represented with five works included in the sale. The highlight of these is titled “Family in the Cotton Field” and is estimated at $60,000-80,000. The Remberts were purchased by a New Haven high school principal, Dr. Lonnie Garris, Jr., who was a friend and early supporter of the artist.

Contemporary paintings by female artists will be prominently featured.

Other highlighted artworks in the sale include “When Youth is Beautiful” by Norman Rockwell, an exquisite oil on canvas capturing the artist’s signature charm and storytelling ability.

It has been in a private collection for over 40 years.

A stellar winter scene by New England Impressionist Aldro Hibbard will be offered at $40,000-$60,000. The Vermont scene was purchased at Vose Galleries in 1925 and has been in a private collection since. This painting is an example of the works Hibbard completed during winters around Jamaica, Vermont. Painted with quick broad brushstrokes, the composition creates a multi-sensory experience that captures the tranquility and seclusion of the countryside during winter.

Frederick Carl Frieseke’s elegant “Lady Trying on a Hat” is a masterpiece of American Impressionism. Exhibited at the Carnegie Institute in 1909 and at the National Academy of Design the same year, the work carries provenance extending all the way back to the artist. In 1906, Frieseke spent the summer in Giverny and the influence of French Impressionism is apparent in this work.
