I hope to see this exhibit before it ends at the 1st of March. My mom just saw it and highly recommended it. I am familiar with a number of the artist who are being exhibited and they are all five star painters.

I went a few weeks ago and absolutely loved the exhibit. Essex Peabody Museum is always fun, but this exhibit is really nice if you love artic scenes.

Quote from painter Rockwell Kent projected on the floor in front of one of his Arctic paintings.

"Being here in this spot now is worth traveling a thousand miles for.

Maybe we have lived only to be here now"

This was my first visit to this museum. Well worth the trip and was really rewarding to see a painting done in a spot I once had the good fortune to stand on as well.
