Guests of Honor: Frederic Church's Cotopaxi

To mark the 200th anniversary of Frederic Church’s birth, the Detroit Institute of Arts presents Guests of Honor: Frederic Church’s Cotopaxi , an exhibition highlighting the artist’s dramatic 1862 painting of an erupting South American volcano. One of the DIA’s most beloved American paintings, Cotopaxi appears together with three of Church’s oil studies of the volcano and a related landscape by his contemporary, Louis Remy Mignot.
