“Farm Scene, Skaneatles Lake” by DeCost Smith is a timeless homage to rural tranquility. Rendered with rich, earthy tones and crisp detail, this painting captures the quiet nobility of upstate New York farmland in autumn—bundled corn, ripened pumpkins, and soft morning light stretching over rolling hills. Smith's work celebrates the enduring rhythm of nature and the pastoral beauty that defined American agrarian life. Set in a heavily gilded frame, it’s not just a window into history—it’s a love letter to the land.
