Welcome to the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library

Recent Acquisitions: Volunteer Picks week 3

image

Over the last five years the Alice C. Sabatini Art Gallery has acquired more than 1,500 new and wonderful works of art. Imagine the difficulty in choosing which works to showcase and which to leave out!

Each week on our blog, we feature two Gallery volunteer picks. We invite you to read and weigh in on what your “friends and neighbors” think about various pieces in your collection-the oldest public art collection in Topeka! Or come see for yourself…

cup and saucer

Artist unknown
J.P. Limoges (maker)
Saucer and Cup, ca. 1890-1932

Victorian rose decorated cup and saucer. Permanent fixture on breakfast table at my mother’s place. - Margaret McGillivary

 

line drawing

Robert B. Green
Untitled (KU stadium), 1961
Pen, ink, ink wash

I like the continuous lines that form subtle images within the images. I like how things are implied but still leave the viewer to fill in the detail.  - Bob Heintzelman
