Bloom: Flowers from the Archives of American Art
March 2, 2019 – October 6, 2019
Sketches and drawings of flowers from our collections provide a fascinating opportunity to examine flowers from both an artistic and scientific point of view. The exhibition coincides with Smithsonian Gardens' biannual orchid show, held this year in the Kogod Courtyard of the Donald W. Reynolds Center for American Art and Portraiture, directly adjacent to the gallery.
