About the Item

Stowe Vermont Village Sleigh Ride - Mid Century Winter Figurative Landscape A bright, crisp morning and a sleigh ride through new snow in Stowe, Vermont is this charming winter landscape by Walter T. Sacks (American, 1901-1961), c.1940's. Sacks uses a vivid color palette and keen attention to detail to bring this exuberant and festive snowy scene to life. Signed lower left "W.T. Sacks". Presented in a wood frame. Image size: 30"H x 25"L. Framed size: 33"H x 28"W x 3"D. Walter Thomas Sacks was a painter known for his landscapes, cityscapes, village scenes, marine scenes harbor views, winterscapes mountainscapes in oils, watercolor and gouache. Walter painted throughout Western New York, Rockport, MA, and Quebec Canada, and won several prizes awards during his career. He was a member of Rochester Artist Club (1st Prize 1938 Prize 1939), Rochester, NY, Fine Arts League of Buffalo (Gold Medal George Inness Prize), Buffalo, NY, and the Salmagundi Club, NYC. He also supported the Society for Sanity in Art, as well as the Rationalists, who rejected ultra-modern expressionist and surrealist movements of the late 1930's. These self-declared 'liberal-conservative' artists of Buffalo and Rochester, NY, exhibited work "based on sound knowledge of fundamentals with individual expression." The Rationalists began exhibiting in 1939 but their combined efforts were short-lived and the group disbanded in the late 1940's. The Rochester division evolved into the Genesee Artists Group.
