Jocelyn and I visited the American Impressionist and Realist Exhibition at the Brisbane Art Gallery on 1st July 2009. So much to see and enjoy. The works of Childe Hassam, John Singer Sargeant and many others.
I was glad we went, taking our own time, joining a guide from time to time, returning to view again. We found the presentation of Australian artists, mainly from the Heidelberg School, a valuable contrast especially given the same time period. The conversation noted below in the Crucifixion story provided one significant connection. Sargeant's wedding gift to the young lady in the portrait was a highlight for Jocelyn.
