SUMMARY:Dr. Howard Miller Lecture Series: Amalia Kussner\, miniaturist
DESCRIPTION:Amalia was a miniature portrait artist and a “darling” of the Gilded Age – and became one of the most sought-after artists of that time. Her career would include painting many of those premier families and European and Russian royalty. With her adventurous spirit\, she traveled during the Boer War in South Africa to paint Cecil Rhodes. In addition to her artistic talent\, she was quite adept at marketing herself and commanding impressive commissions. Amalia was clearly a woman ahead of her time. \nThis presentation will cover the full story of her life\, starting with her early years in Terre Haute\, the incredible rise to fame in New York in the 1890s\, and her final years in Europe after 1900. You will see images of a wide variety of her work\, both from museums and a private collection.

SUMMARY:Dr. Howard Miller Lecture Series: Thomas Jefferson's Revolutionary Garden at Monticello
DESCRIPTION:Peter Hatch will present Thomas Jefferson’s Revolutionary Garden at Monticello. Hatch\, Director of Gardens & Grounds Emeritus for the Thomas Jefferson Foundation\, was responsible for maintenance\, interpretation\, and restoration of the 2\,400-acre landscape at Monticello from 1977 to 2012. Thomas Jefferson wrote that “the greatest service which can be rendered any country is to add a useful plant to its culture\,” and Monticello’s 1\,000-foot-long\, terraced vegetable garden became an experimental laboratory\, an Ellis Island of new and unusual vegetable novelties from around the globe. \nWhile growing over 330 vegetable and 170 fruit varieties\, Jefferson was also a pioneer in supporting farmer’s markets and promoting vegetable cookery. This revolutionary garden resulted in a revolutionary cuisine in the kitchen at Monticello. Restored in 1984\, the garden and the Jefferson legacy continue to inspire the farm to table movement today. As a tie to our theme for 2022\, Peter will incorporate collecting issues at Monticello with stories of plants dying\, seed collecting compromised by naughty harvesters\, varieties not being true to name\, and more. Free\, reservations requested.
