Wyeth’s Christina’s World Heads to the Brandywine River Museum
Posted by Kelly



Andrew Wyeth’s family, along with the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford, Pa., is hosting a celebration of the late artist’s life and work at the museum this Saturday, Jan. 31.

In addition to free admission to the museum from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., the fête features the artist’s most famous painting, “Christina’s World”—on view for the first time in the region—loaned from the Museum of Modern Art. A documentary, Self-Portrait: Snow Hill, which includes family footage, photos and personal letters (and is narrated by the artist’s wife, Betsy James Wyeth), will screen every hour.

And as always, the museum’s Andrew Wyeth Gallery features 38 of the artist’s other watercolor, dry brush and tempera paintings, and the N.C. Wyeth Gallery holds approximately 40 paintings and illustrations by Andrew’s father, N.C. Wyeth.

Enjoy the celebration!
