Curator's Notes:

The York County Heritage Trust holds a large collection of Miller's works and has published a book of his sketches entitled Lewis Miller: Sketches and Chronicles.  Miller's work has also been the subject of many magazine articles.

The Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum at Colonial Williamsburg and the Virginia Historical Society in Richmond each have original Lewis Miller sketchbooks.  There are many depictions of the New River Valley in these volumes.

"It was very personal art," says Justine Landis, curator of decorative arts and historic houses for the York County Heritage Trust. "He was just recording things."
