Additional Information: Original watercolor painting by C. Booth Fargus, signed and dated “88” in the bottom left with a Vermont location. The composition portrays a traditional rural Vermont winter landscape centered on the maple sugaring season, depicting a horse-drawn sled standing in fresh snow beside a rustic sugarhouse or farmhouse. Towering leafless maple trees dominate the foreground, with metal sap buckets hanging from their trunks, illustrating the historic practice of collecting maple sap for syrup production. Rolling snow-covered hills, weathered split-rail fencing, and a dense stand of bare hardwood trees create a peaceful winter setting rendered in soft washes of muted blues, grays, and earthy browns. Executed in an Americana folk art style, the painting captures the quiet beauty and agricultural traditions of rural Vermont. The artwork is double matted under glass and housed in a dark grey textured frame.
