Nineteenth Century Louisiana Painters and Paintings

W.E. Groves developed his passion for acquiring art after restoring a painting as a Christmas gift for his wife. Nineteen Century Louisiana Painters and Paintings is the result of over 30 years of Grove's collecting. With the indexing, cataloguing, and preparation completed by Martin and Margaret Wiesendanger, this catalogue features a detailed selection from the fifteen hundred paintings, prints, watercolors, daguerreotypes, and miniatures from the W.E. Groves Collection and the I.M. Cline Library that contribute to preserving the history and beauty of 19th century Louisiana.
