The first museum in the country dedicated to celebrating and exploring the art and artists of the South, the Morris Museum of Art has a permanent collection of some 2,500 paintings and works on paper. Nearly 1,900 of these works make up the Southern Collection, a broad-based survey collection, encompassing a history of painting in the South and ranging from delicate watercolors by eighteenth century nature artists, to vibrant works by some of today's best-known Southern artists. Here is a list of these works with basic, descriptive information. Masterworks from the permanent collection are showcased in a series of galleries devoted to various time periods, themes, or art movements. The tour begins with antebellum portraits displayed in an elegant setting and continues through Civil War art, the African American image in Southern painting, the Southern still life, Southern impressionism, twentieth-century painting, Southern landscapes, and contemporary art.
