Description


Painting by Horace Pippin who served with the all-black 369th Infantry Regiment; the first to reach the Rhine. Painted in 1931, apparently the experience of the western front haunted him long after the shooting was all over. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/369th_Infantry_Regiment_(United_States) -- worth a peek. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horace_Pippin -- ditto. https://artbma.org/ -- supplemental reading. No test. The Baltimore Museum of Art is just south of Johns Hopkins University and has quite a collection... very varied. We will sample some of its offerings. My first trip to the BMA was in the early 1980's when my mother-in-law visited from the UK and she read about a special exhibit being held: Matisse. When we got there, the place was undergoing serious remodeling and the Matisse exhibit was disappointing... construction paper cutouts of what were supposed to be flowers. That put a bad taste in my mouth; if this is all they have to rave about, send me back to the Walters. Well, we gave the place another shot and found a really classy museum without emphasis on refrigerator art.
