I am a softie for turn-of-the-centry modern art. I love the vibrant colors and the depiction -- how can I not think of my daughter and me reading Harry Potter together when I look at this? Thanks!



Elizabeth Jahn Ann Arbor, MI

15. St. Jerome in His Study

I'm always awestruck by the level of detain in Durer's engravings - especially in person. Can't wait until the grand reopening!

Emily Ehrlich Ann Arbor, MI

1. Boyhood of Lincoln

I have always been fascinated with Abraham Lincoln. But so often we think of him as his image has been shown stereotypically -- in a formal portrait, or on the face of a coin or a bill. This painting brings Lincoln to life, and shows him as an individual. In addition to the subject matter, the attention to the single source of light is striking, but also gives it a bit of a photographic look. Finally, Lincoln looks at peace. I really like that!

The water from the ice melting, and the softness of the light and the tones, feels a sense of winter ending and the earth opening to spring.

5. Peacock Mosaic

When I was a student in LS&A in the early 80s I took a couple of art history classes. I have memories of tiny classrooms and viewing pieces on not very good slides. I am excited about UMMA's transformation and how much better it will be for students to learn about and experience art! I chose the Tiffany piece because of the colors and intricacy of the mosaic tiles. I can't wait to see it in person.
