The
Ellenberger Gallery and Cattails Antiques
The
Ellenberger Gallery is located in the first floor of the barn
at the main house. Roger W. Ellenberger is an accomplished
painter in acrylic and watercolor, with subjects ranging from
New England country landscapes to the many fishing harbors and
work boats of the Atlantic. His background in architecture allows
him to accurately portray early maritime and shipbuilding history.
His works hang in galleries and private collections throughout
the world. He is represented in the collections of many corporations
and financial institutions. He has received numerous awards for
his works, and has done cover paintings for Down East magazine.
He is a member of the American Society of Marine Artists, for
which one of his paintings was featured in a national show, magazine
and advertising materials.
Cattails Antiques, which is located in the second floor of the
barn, features country furniture, accessories, folk art, antique
paintings, nautical, Shaker items, hooked rugs, and linens. The
Ellenbergers are members of the Maine Antique Dealers Association.
Both shops are open by appointment or by chance.
