Here’s a chance to see more than 80 paintings, studies and sketches by Maine artist Gibeon Elden Bradbury (1833-1904). His work captures the quiet beauty of the Saco River Valley as it looked in the late 19th century. Bradbury entered the art world as an ornamental painter of wagons, sleighs and carriages. He often wandered the banks of the Salmon Falls River where sketches of landscapes, animals and botanicals became portraits in his studio.
