    Art Brokerage: Milton Bond American Artist: Milton Bond is one of the renown elder artists of Connecticut. -- Governor John Rowland, on the occasion of Bond's retrospective 1998 exhibit at the Discovery Museum in Bridgeport, issued a Proclamation declaring the artist's 80th birthday, March 5, 1998, as "Milton Bond Day." Painting the bygone scenes of cities, towns, and the sea, Bond delightfully renders the fine details of history and time, giving each of his paintings a sensation which is at once elaxing, invigorating, and sublime. A self-taught artist who comes from a long line of oyster men and sailors, he now lives in a house along the edge of the Housatonic River. He is descended from Sir William Bond, who in England in the 1500's built the largest ship of the fleet of Henry VIII. Milton grew up assisting his father, Captain Ashabel Bond, who owned the Bond & Currier fleet on Long Island Sound, in the operation and sailing of four sailing and three steam vessels. Their landing place was the still famous Bond's Dock at Stratford. Milton Bond is from Long Island, reverse glass painting is his medium, which is technique accomplished by a handful of masters today. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
