Seeing paintings hung side by side and comparing them, people intuit. We're still regretting the loss of our farms.

People love to look at art that draws one in, but they also want to learn something new. I believe this exhibit provides both.

This group of painters had, from the 1870s on, gone to Europe. They brought impressionist styles back to New England.

I cried until my eyes swelled shut, and then I slept, a black, dreamless sleep from which I awoke amazingly refreshed, at least until I remembered.

Bombazine would have shown a deeper sense of her loss.

It's a great loss to us. She was a sweet person.
