Donald Davis Director, Tyringham Gallery on HARRY LANE Far twenty-five years the name of Harry Lane has been a magic one for those art lovers close to Nature living both in and away from the Berkshire Hills. No painter of trite landscapes or stylized barns and fences, but a highly trained dramatist with a brush who steals segments of the outdoors long enough to translate and present in glowing color to his audience that side of Nature known best to those who know where and how to look. Hallihocks and roses, racks and stumps, leaves and bark, and water, and the clouds, he paints them all, in his own inimitable style and with that kind of poetic skill that always draws the same response that's got to be a Harry Lane" . His paintings grace so many walls in so many homes in so wide an area, to bring not only the outdoors, but portraits and animals, and almost everything that can be painted into the daily lives of those fortunate enough to own the work of this student of Nature. Artists there are many, but Harry Lanes, only a few .
