See a mural completed by Thomas Hart Benton just before his death in 1975, as well as 27 sketches and studies in pencil, ink and oil made by the artist in conjunction with the mural.

This will be the mural's only public showing outside of Nashville, where it will be installed permanently next year in a special gallery in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Nashville, Tennessee.
