C.F. Senior · 1881 or after · oil on canvas ·  Accession ID  1980.62.21

This painting depicts a rural scene with people gathered in front of log cabins. Hills, sparse trees, and a haystack are visible in the background under a partly cloudy sky. In the distance on the left, two people stand on a pile of logs, a small fire breaking out on the far left and putting gray smoke in the air. Closer to us on the left, a man stands by a machine made of several horizontal rods, appearing to feed long strands of fiber or grain into it. Gathered in a line across the rest of the painting is a crowd of men and women, appearing to hold long, flat objects and bundles of thin fiber. Some of the people talk while others seem to dance. The people all have pale skin, and the women wear colorful dresses with aprons and bonnets, while the men wear jackets, vests, and top hats.

American 19th Century · third quarter 19th century · oil on canvas ·  Accession ID  1953.5.97

This is a painting of a large cat's head amidst birds in a forest setting. The cat's head emerges from tall grass, and the rest of its body is not visible. Its fur is a mix of brown and black with a cream area around its nose and cheeks, and it has long white whiskers. Its ears are pricked up, and its yellow eyes are looking upwards. In the cat's mouth is a bird with blue and green feathers, a black head, and a long black beak. To the left and right of the cat are two thin trees with birds in them; on the left is a bright red bird, and on the right is a bird with teal, green, and black feathers. The trees depicted have sparse branches with a few green leaves at the top. The sky behind the cat and trees is light blue.
