“New Works in the Lewis Cross Art Collection” opened to the public March 1st and features 13 new paintings by Lewis Cross that were acquired by the Museum in the last five years. The recently conserved self-portrait will be the highlight of this exhibition, following 6 years of restoration work.
The Tri-Cities Historical Museum acquired its first Lewis Cross painting, a still life, in 1969. Since then, the Museum’s collection has grown to 22 paintings by this celebrated local artist. He painted a variety of subjects, from still lifes and maritime scenes to local landscapes and those encountered on his travels.
