Antiques Roadshow Has a Boston Episode – The Lowell Connection

Today’s Boston Globe has a story about PBS’s Antiques Roadshow and the Boston episode which features – among other finds – a painting hanging in the city of Boston’s Parkman House.  A photo accompanying the article shows Mayor Tom Menino, the quite familiar Skinner appraiser Colleene Fesko and an Aldro Hibbard painting of a snowy scene in Vermont. Fesko valued the painting at $50,000. Lowell’s Whistler House Museum of Art has many Aldro Hibbard paintings including some Vermont snow scenes. (Couldn’t find an image to post.)
