Capturing the Immediate: Impressionism in the South: Paintings from the Permanent Collection
July 13 - December 29, 2024
This expansive exhibition includes figurative, still-life, and landscape paintings by many well-known and some previously undiscovered impressionist painters who worked in the South. Driven by the passionate interest of museum founders Sissie and Billy Morris, the museum has made impressionist painting an important focus of its collection since the start. More than three galleries are devoted to this groundbreaking exhibition.
Although impressionism was looked upon as a radical style of painting in late-nineteenth century Europe, hundreds of American painters—including many who later worked in the South—eagerly adopted the unblended brushwork and vibrant palette of French painters Camille Pissarro, Pierre- Auguste Renoir, and, especially, Claude Monet. In 1883, when Monet moved to Giverny, he proved himself a magnet to the American painters who studied in France, absorbing the ideas and techniques of French realists like Jean-François Millet, impressionists like Monet and his colleagues, and more conservative academic painters. By the turn of the twentieth century, many American painters had elevated landscape and still-life painting to a level traditionally enjoyed only by historical, religious, and mythological subject matter. The unprecedented emphasis on subjects that were part of the artist’s direct experience came naturally to painters in the South, including many—Gari Melchers, Eliot Clark, Paul Sawyier, Virginia Randall McLaws, Louis Betts, William Posey Silva—whose paintings are highlighted in this exhibition. The success of the first major American exhibition of impressionist paintings, in 1886, cemented its popularity among artists, critics, and collectors. But as is often the case, artists were well ahead of the public in their embrace of this new style.
This exhibition demonstrates that artists in the South shared key concerns with their French counterparts, most notably a grounding in direct sensory and lived experience, as well as “the painting of modern life” that meant subjects could be observed in the artist’s own environment. An increasing number of southern painters who discovered impressionism found the combination of sensuous technique and native subject matter perfectly suited to southern sensibilities.
Unlike in Europe, where national schools emerged, impressionism in America had regional associations around the country, and its geographical fractures have led some scholars to view it as merely local and therefore unworthy of serious study. Scholars have also tended to ignore American impressionist paintings created after 1915. Like the many paintings on view, Delphine Julia Bradt’s Spring Day (circa 1925), William Posey Silva’s Raiment of Springtime (1931), and Ernest Lawson’s The Waterfall, Shore’s Mill, Tennessee (1938) demonstrate that impressionism occupied and sustained a place of great importance in keeping with the region’s agrarian roots, retaining its vitality well into the twentieth century.

Located on the Riverwalk in historic downtown Augusta, the Morris Museum of Art, the oldest museum in the country that is specifically devoted to the art and artists of the American South, is noted for its multifaceted permanent collection of 5,000 works of art and a rich variety of continually changing special exhibitions and public programs. The Morris is dedicated to the continued interpretation of the culture of the South in all its forms.
Located in historic downtown Augusta, Georgia, on the Savannah River, the Morris has preserved the history and culture of the South for more than twenty-five years. The museum’s permanent collection, dating from the late eighteenth century to the present, is arranged thematically in ten galleries. In addition, the museum hosts temporary special exhibitions throughout the year as well as a rich array of public programs and events for children, families, and art lovers of all ages.
The Morris Museum’s permanent collection was established in 1989 with the purchase of 230 paintings from Dr. Robert Powell Coggins, a pioneering collector of Southern art. That acquisition set the museum’s mission and identified its special interest in the art and artists of the American South. When it opened in 1992, the collection included approximately 700 objects, half of them paintings. Today, the museum’s collection includes 5,000 works of art that represent fifteen states and the District of Columbia. In recent years, its traditional strengths in paintings and works on paper have been significantly enhanced by the creation of important collections of photographs, folk art, and studio art glass. The Morris Museum’s Center for the Study of Southern Art, a comprehensive research library, has also grown to include 20,000 volumes, 28,000 vertical files, 1,350 media resources, and a rich archive that includes artists’ letters and papers.

This album is devoted to Hana’s life in photos from 2004 when we re-homed her from the RSPCA until December 2015 when she sadly died.
Hana had a bad start in life, being one of 40 dogs being kept in very poor conditions in one house. Thankfully the RSPCA rescued all the dogs and found new homes for them.
Hana continued to have many health problems during her life including being afraid of many sounds, IBS which meant she was always on special diets, allergy problems, a heart murmur and in her final year she developed a canine version of Dementia.
Hana was a very affectionate dog and was totally devoted to our Sheltie, Bonsai. Sadly Bonsai died in 2009. Shortly after we were lucky enough to re-home another Sheltie called Mia who bonded immediately with Hana, as you will see from the photos.

drove out to the coast near Florence. tried to catch sand fleas, poked jellyfish and a dead sea lion, wrote in the sand. truck camped off a dirt road that night.
Devoted Christians kept her body, brought it to Constantinople where Emperor Constantin built a big church to honour her. The sarcophagus remained there till 800 when the iconoclasts came to power. According to the tradition, one stormy night, the sarcophagus disappeared from Constantinople and on 13th July 800 reached Rovinj coast. From the shore it was taken by a young man who managed to pull it with his two heifers uphill to the church of St Francis as it was called in that time.
The appearance of the sarcophagus, dated from the 3rd century, was taken as a miracle, so the inhabitants started worshiping St Euphemia as their patroness.
