William Smith Auctions

In honor of the United States 250th anniversary, join us for an unparalleled live auction event featuring the collection of Warren Kimble, one of America’s most beloved folk artists, including an in-person meet and greet with Kimble himself.

In the span of his prolific career, Kimble has created art that captures the heart of bucolic America—timeless New England landscapes and whimsical farm animals rendered in his distinctive folk art style. A restorer of historic homes, a collector of American antiques, and a community leader in Brandon, Vermont, both Kimble and his art embody the American spirit, making this collection a fitting tribute as the nation celebrates 250 years of independence.

This unique auction will feature Kimble’s own artwork, ranging from his traditional pieces to his modern explorations into abstract art and readymades. It will also incorporate selections from his personal collection of 20th century folk art and Americana. Highlights from other New England estates include Sabra Field woodblock prints, Stephen Huneck artworks, furniture by Thomas Moser, Eldred Wheeler and D.R. Dimes, mid-century furniture and art by Herman Miller, Josef Albers, and many more.

Words from the artist, “This auction represents a story of my life, my collection, my love of folk art, and how I could express my art throughout my life.”
