Paintings Attributed to Renowned Artist A.B. Frost

This remarkable collection of six original paintings, believed to be the work of renowned American artist A.B. Frost, once adorned the walls of a grand mansion in Scranton, Pennsylvania owned by Frank M. Vandling, a prominent Postmaster General of the late 19th century. These extraordinary pieces are referenced in a newspaper article in The Scranton Tribune on July 7, 1900, describing the Vandling home with “walls being entirely covered by tapestry, and paintings of hunting scenes. The work was done by a well-known New York artist and is complete in interest both from the beauty of execution and the excellence of subject. Several of the pictures are the spirited clever ones by Frost.”
