​The Huntington Historical Society is pleased to present a collection of oil paintings by internationally recognized sculptor, painter, and illustrator Joy Buba. Born in the Lloyd Manor House on Lloyd’s Neck in 1904, Joy grew up exploring and sketching the surrounding landscape, developing a lifelong appreciation for nature and the outdoors. The paintings on display capture quiet scenes of rural Long Island in the post-WWII period, just before the rapid growth in the 1950s.
