Description: In these pages you will find revealed not only the power and the beauty of Hibbard's painting, but the man as well. Aldro Hibbard was not only an artist, but an active citizen of the town of Rockport, Massachusetts. For years he managed and played baseball on the town's teams; he served as Commissioner of Parks. This man of many seasons and interests went north each winter to his second home in East Jamaica, Vermont. There he painted glistening snowscapes, loggers and their oxen, rushing streams and mountain vistas. In Rockport, he painted granite quarries, the harbors, the sea and the town itself. As you look at Hibbard's paintings, you will find an ensemble, a legacy of a vanishing America. And it is important to remember that Aldro Hibbard was a leader among Cape Ann artists who evolved a style of painting known as The Rockport School of Painting which is universally recognized as an integral part of the history of American Art.
