to Focus on...The Peale Gallery |
|
| Enjoy American art in Dover, the
First State’s capital city—from colonial portraiture to impressionism to
20th-century traditional realism. See still lifes that move you and
landscapes that draw you in. Connect with two centuries of work by
nationally renowned artists Gilbert Stuart, Thomas Cole, Albert Bierstadt,
Childe Hassam, and six members of the Peale family.
Discover the fact and fancy of Delaware illustrator Frank Schoonover, whose pirates delight visitors of all ages. More than 20 examples of his imaginative work are on view. Delight in the “stories” that a select collection of Delaware Valley furniture tell, and marvel at intricate needlework, breathtaking silver, and colorful ceramics. You'll leave in awe of the diverse and rich legacy which American artists and craftsmen have left us. And, it's all free! Ask about our special programs for children and adults. Come back. Often. You, your family and friends are always welcome at the Biggs Museum. |
