The Delaware Art Museum is pleased to announce a display of three oil paintings by James Jacques Joseph Tissot (1836-1902), featuring Mavourneen, Portrait of Kathleen Newton, 1877; Dans la serre [In the Conservatory], c. 1875-79; and Young Ladies Admiring Japanese Objects, 1869.

By the end of the First World War the Imperial War Museum held the most important collection of contemporary British art in the country. Augmented by subsequent war artist schemes, the collection now offers a fascinating insight into twentieth century warfare both on the front line and at home.
