Linda--

There are two I would recommend, though the Philadelphia Museum is a fabulous place, and there are many.

One is "The Moorish Chief", by Eduard Charlemont. It's totally sumptuous.

The other is an "Annunciation" by Henry Ossawa Tanner, that stands all of the conventions around showing Mary and the Angel on their heads. Totally innovative, and powerfully moving.

Both of these are poor reproductions--sorry.

You'll love it there.

Best-TE
