Beyond Craft at the Mint Museum Uptown








Leatrice S. and Melvin B. Eagle, leading collectors of decorative arts and founding members of the Mint’s Founders Circle, assembled this renowned collection over 53 years.



This is truly the most beautiful exhibit I have ever seen anywhere. I actually got cold chills after viewing this collection of beauty, style and grace. 





The pieces are so very different from one another and the visual sensation of the artistry and composition of each piece tantalizes the senses. 



 The collection will be exhibited through February 22, 2015. 


 

On February 6-8, 2015 the museum will host a panel discussion with the Eagles as well as artists represented in their collection. This is part of a weekend long celebration of the Eagles with support from the Founders Circle. See details of these and other events at mintmuseum.org/happenings.
