Our new 2013 Issue is arriving on newsstands and in subscriber’s mailboxes this week. Highlights from this season’s issue includes:

Fire on the River
The author takes us back to turn-of-the-20th century Pittsburgh, illuminating the then-burgeoning artistic culture. He also examines the work of three of the region’s important artists who found as much beauty in steel mills as in the rugged hills of Western Pennsylvania.

Also included (for subscriber copies) is the first print in our four-part lithographic panorama by Jan Schmuckal. Subscribe or renew your subscription today to receive this year’s exclusive. Check back soon as more updates from this issue are added to the site.

Splendour of Ended Day by noted Tonal Impressionist Jan Schmuckal

Our subscriber bonus has an interesting twist in 2013; an evocative landscape panorama in four parts. In each 2013 issue, subscribers will receive a high-quality lithographic print of the oil paintings Jan has created exclusively for American Bungalow subscribers. Each image stands on its own as a unique artwork. Hang them together and they are united into one continuous, magnificent scene; a contemplative place filled with soothing light and shadow that invites you to stay for the sunset.

This offer is exclusively for American Bungalow subscribers—you won’t find these frame-worthy prints on the newsstand. You still have time to subscribe—the first 2013 issue is due out in February.
