The Civil War and American Art on exhibition at American Art through April 28, 2013, explores the transformative and emotional impact of the war on America through landscape and genre paintings. To accompany the show, we created a video podcast with senior curator Eleanor Harvey, who walks us through six key paintings from the museum’s collection. Watch the full podcast on YouTube.
