Milton Bond

Milton Bond (1918 - 2010) was active/lived in New York, Connecticut.  Milton Bond is known for Naive ship, urban views on reverse glass.

Born in New York City, he is one of the few folk artists working in the exacting medium of reverse-glass painting.  Most of his life was as a New England oysterman and sailor.
