"Hamilton House seems to me unrivaled for the beauty of its situation, for a certain grand air which I have found it hard to match in any house I have ever seen." - Sarah Orne Jewett, "River Driftwood," 1881

Unrivaled for the Beauty: Views of Hamilton House by Students of Ogunquit Summer School of Art showcases depictions of Hamilton House by students and master instructors, including noted regional artist Todd Bonita.
