After all the glitz of King Tut it was great to go upstairs for a little "comfort" art -- almost fifty Amish quilts from the late 19th and early 20th century. Like in the Tut exhibit, I was again struck by how modern these pieces looked even though some were over a hundred years old. This special exhibition is titled "Amish Abstractions: Quilts from the Collection of Faith and Stephen Brown" and it will be on display until June 6, 2010. Great gift shop stuff!
