Brush and Pen: Artists and Writers of the White Mountains bridges the gap in the art and literature worlds by combining significant White Mountain art and prose in one format. This film brings together paintings and literature created by some of America’s finest artists and writers of the 1800s.

Imagine New Hampshire’s White Mountains during the nineteenth century where artists created America’s first landscape paintings and writers composed poetry and prose. Where railroads brought visitors to grand hotels, and adventurous people climbed the highest peaks. Brush and Pen: Artists and Writers of the White Mountains offers the audience a tour through the nineteenth century with some of New Hampshire’s most famous works of art.

Brush and Pen: Artists and Writers of the White Mountains is produced by Andrea Melville of Barking Spider Productions.
