View of Fort Snelling, Edward K. Thomas, c. 1850, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Paintings

Minnesota landscape Although the upper reaches of the Mississippi River were sparsely settled in the 1850s, a surprising number of artists sought out the northern landscapes. Edward Thomas’s View of Fort Snelling exemplifies frontier images in which Dakota tipis, houses of the families associated with the American Fur Company, and the military fort exist side by side. Such depictions served as accurate topographical representations and also as visual records of a landscape already in transition. Conservation of this picture was made possible by a generous contribution from Al and Dena Naylor through the Art Champions program. Size: 27 x 34 in. (68.58 x 86.36 cm) (canvas) 33 5/8 x 40 5/8 x 4 1/8 in. (85.41 x 103.19 x 10.48 cm) (outer frame) Medium: Oil on canvas

Bust of a Lady (possibly Fanny Coleman), Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux , 1872, Cleveland Museum of Art: Modern European Painting and Sculpture

Abandoning the strict frontality and symmetry of the neoclassical style, Carpeaux was instead inspired by French portrait busts of the 1600s and 1700s. This bust probably depicts Fanny Coleman, an English actress with whom Carpeaux may have had a romantic relationship. The turn of the head and the undulating drapery infuse the figure with a sense of drama. Patronized by Napoleon III, Carpeaux created the celebrated figural group La Danse for the facade of the Opera Garnier in Paris, a work renowned for its sensual nudes, but denounced by contemporaries as an affront to public decency. Size: Overall: 83.2 x 58.5 x 39.4 cm (32 ¾ x 23 1/16 x 15 ½ in.) Medium: marble
